Mulholland Drive (+1)

Rebel’s highway,

toll free line

Drifting median,

ill defined

 

Sirens distant,

flashing lights

Mocking laughter

—death’s delight

 

(Memories Of September 30th, 1955)

 

 

Izumo No Okuni

 

Behind the mask, 

only truth gets told

 

Its covering sacred

—eyes behold

 

(Kabuki Theater: April, 1973)
