Sumi-e

What good is
having the ghost of
Sengai inside you
     when you've
gone out w/out
     yr black-ink
     utensils &
     yr short-term
memory loss means
that you won't
     remember the
hawk against the
          grey sky curvi-
linearly focusing
     in on the object
of its desire
     by the time you
finally arrive home?
