Foreign Haiku
Ah! the first counting
in this room
these shadows
how many insects?
sleep and rest?
a sign of malaria?
how many dogs look
at this bone
funnyly and dearly?
the rest is in snail
his likeness and unlikeness
now, in the twilight
a noise
breaking tortoise
even here?
may be the next
counting in the snow
is the rest of pan Africanization?.
