@ Small Gem Press 2025

I traveled through the torii (鳥居) today

in search of Benzaiten.

I dined with bees.

Feasted on plants.

Prayed with monarchs.

Meditated with cranes.

Walked through prairies.

Danced with fairies.

Burned in the desert.

Rested in the shade.

I traveled through the heavens today

in search of home.
