The Farmhouse (after Du Fu), a poem.


Our farmhouse gate opens
onto an old curved road,
carved by circuitous current.
Our village market
has become lazy,
simply overgrown as me,
dressing how I please.
Loquats linger loquaciously,
scenting the air,
willowy branches wavering.
Cocks drying wings flaring,
glaring by settling light.
Off duty cormorants
crowding our dusky pier.
