Feel within her heart forlorn?
The blue of the sky
The blue of the sea. Neither
Stains her, between them she floats.”

“Haiku are meant to evoke an emotional response from the reader ... to light the spark that triggers creative rumination ... They act as literary manifestations ... visions of nature’s seasonal modulations ... They're emotionally tinged words, barely perceptible sensory flickers ... literary etchings of lucid visions transposed into the minds of its readers ... They're meant to act as sensory catalysts ... like the passing of a penciled baton laid out upon a piece of paper that a reader might grasp for in their mind's eye ... all of which prompts the reader to continue exploring the sensory experience elicited from the writers pen ... This is how the literary sketching of poets are intended to function ... as creative muses with which readers can draw from and viscerally apply to their own artistic idioms ... from that lucid space within their heads ... where their minds eye can spark their own creative visions"

“without changing color
in the emptiness
of this world of ours,
the heart of man
fades like a flower.
Tsurayuki identifies two powers of poetry I do not find in Komachi's extant poems.
Both relate to the higher realm of the gods and goddesses, and again I do not find this subject matter in her poems.
He cites poems 'Moving heaven and earth' and 'Waking the feelings of unseen gods and spirits'.
In fact, Komachi expresses a view that seems to be nihilistic.”

ink-stained journeys come alive
through bindings we soar
