Look at a local Japanese Temple Garden, Bill.
. Zen Temple Garden .

The backdrop of all sound! Excellent!
bill,
your poems are very good. your comment on dustin's website seems
to overlook the self righteous
nature of his poem. masturbation is
every bit as natural as drawing
breath.
the lord's prayer
i keep my mind
on the woman beside me
Thanks, gabi, for your poem and for the link. This particular Zen garden is within the Japanese Friendship Garden in Balboa Park, San Diego, California, which we visited in February.
Thanks, Pat. One constant theme of haiku, in my view is "Listen to the silence"--or, more precisely, "Listen to the silences."
Thanks, prado. In my comment to dustin, I spoke as a formalist, if you will, rather than as a moralist. Thus, I referred to an aspect of the poem as "facile." But I think you and I are using different terminology to talk about very much the same thing. Don't know about "natural as breathing," though. I was breathing when I was a day old. On the other hand . . .
enjoyed!
touching myself
in
a sultry dream,
t'was
god who made me
a
man of the
flesh.
Thanks, polona.
Intersting, prado.
i like this :)
i enjoyed this bill. well done.
this is the perfect representation of the natural stillness which i love
amazing
and made even more so
beacause i sense you in the background
smiling at yourself
when you read it
Thanks, ruthanne, eric, and floots. floots, you got that right.
