The Worshipful Master

the worshipful master with his common gavel
is long becoming uncabled, unraveled
can't help but be dazzled
by the girl in the dark
whom the sun passes by
and deprives her of light.

when in the west the sun descends
he lets her play with his wooden gavel
it fills her with light till her body burns bright.

mostly naked than clothed
in a hoodwink and apron
she skips to the east
to take his seat.

she gives the poor master forty-one kisses
then reigns in the north as
his worshipful mistress.

(wo oh oh oh oh...)

A story of submission to a powerful master? That's the way it came to me anyway. Nicely done!

by the way, thanks for providing the three different types of japanese poetry. i had no idea that i had no idea what a haiku really is, or that there have to be specific themes. do you have any examples of kultryu. i am also fascinated by 'madness.'

[Matthew Kult]
