Renga 4

Today, a fire lake--
over glass chill and stillness,
sun shines self-portraits.

Painter, in your drunkenness,
add to God a fire-dipped beard.

Shinto temples stand
after years of faith-quaking:
there, painted in gold.

Here, on a strip of heaven,
monks, steel-eyed, sear through storm clouds.
