into the shades - Yoko Danno

         like rescue
         ropes
         wisteria
         flowers
         hanging
         from
         the trellis
                  *
         pigeons
                  & passersby
         swirling
         around huge
         yellow umbrellas
         in eddies
                          in galaxies
                  *
         a flock
         of black birds
         flying wild
         to the womb
         of pink
         gold and ruby
                                  hours
                  *
         dark
         glasses
         are essential
         to gaze
         into ultra
                          violent rays
