Poetry Contest

Non erotic but emotional.

Write a spiritual dark poem with no more than 50 words. Using the words, "kimono," "Fujiyama," and "Hibachi."

Seen through the dark glaucoma  
tripping Hibachi's twilight sake  
over Fujiyama's bamboo staccato
wrapped in a cold breath kimono
listening to my dying Winona
with a silence of weeping dominos  
dripping from the moon's cornea

Hole Volcanic Deep Plugged --

Full Spewing Each Flatulent Eruption
 
"On being tossed into sacred Mt. Fujiyama, most beautiful Japanese virgin spirits crapped their kimonos."
-- an ancient Japanese ghost story  
once told on campouts at each witching time of night
round the dark charcoals in the hibachi
 
*
 
My naked spirit chilly sans kimono its hibachi lit
when on my soul Mt. Fujiyama hurled and hiccupped hot ash shit.
 
*
 
a dedication of Respect
for
the burning Pain of erupting spiritual hemorrhoids
either internal or external --
ancient japanese piles or otherwise
 
a revolving helios couplet menippean satire on
the multitudes of ethereal no things
(as well as the plagues of weeny things soulful)
 
july, 2023 -- film star winona ryder tragically too old these days to be cast
the beautiful american pregnant virgin spirit cast  
into fictional mt. helena bonham carter

Pleasant repast

It was while she observed Fujiyama
In the distance in its full glory
That Nabuka, dressed in her colorful kimono,
Prepared a simple meal of rice and fish
Over her hibachi
Silently praying that it would be
Suitable for her honorable guest

The Fujyiama's sunset

 
The sunset over the Fujiyama
speaks of abandonment,
but a wanderer weeps on his tatami.

Dance in kimono's delight.
The wind shines like heaven's volcanoes.

The morning Hibachi for virtuous water.
The desert's montain!
The body aches for red velvet kimono
as in the night of dream's agony.

The wind is a luscious Hibachi.

The desert's rapture dew drops.
The night shines like no moon.

lost souls

Fujiyama's gaze holds them grey,
Souls cloaked in kimono grey,
Dancing, amidst shadows, on coals of Hibachi's sway.
Trials contorted to a labyrinth, they are lost
Seeking inner light haunted by the eternal night.
Yet hope glimmers faint, a celestial array,
a new dawn is farther away.
