a "sparrow's tear"

( 雀の涙 : suzume no namida )

my Buddha in Hell

birds have to fly away

live transparently in a good day

looking for and finding lost words for beautiful things

and to die alive

the perfect day

Today is the perfect day to die.

All living is in tune with me.

All voices sing in me.

All beauty has come to rest in my eyes.

Any bad thoughts left me.

Today is the perfect day to die.

My land is quietly surrounding me.

My field is no longer tilled.

My house is full of laughter.

The children have returned home.

Yes, today is a perfect day to die
