cityscape skyline
two hours under dusk
invites my eyes up
thin rim of the crescent moon
burning through the atmosphere

It started to snow this morning. After two days of a less cold rain that suggested spring, I awoke to see snowflakes drifting in a half-clouded sky, the sun rising in a clear patch to the east. At midmorning, the sky clouded over and it began to snow furiously. From my window, I watched it fall upon the construction site across from my building. On the roof of the still skeletal building, workers persisted in the icy wet shower.
winter veiled grey
deleted in a starched sky
snowflakes meet sparks
from a welder’s torch
six floors above shijo street
Noontime bike ride February 2, 2012
black top icy shade
collated in browns and black
parallel to side walk
brushed aside by street traffic
pigeons snacking in the snow
