Taking a nap
on oranges in his shop—
a fruit vendor

Negotiating
the long sleepless night with
mantra and alprax

Painting
spring with willow
as brush

Unmindful
of body’s joy—
the ascetic

Repeated orgasm
in the back: morning rounds of
halasana

A couple fumbles
through the non-stop rain in search
of paradise

Veiling her breasts
with the season’s first snows—
the hill blushes
