春の川俳句 Spring River Haiku

春の川
亀らは浮かぶ
ゴミの上

In the spring river
Turtles floating lazily
Over the garbage

Habitus

Only one in a suit
First day teaching at a new uni
Only one not in a suit
PhD graduation ceremony

Pierre Bourdieu's habitus DOES exist
Encircling and excluding us all

How To Write Poetry

I know as much
About how to write poetry
As I understand why
So many never write a word

Outgrown

The hardest friends to lose
Are the ones that outgrow you
