two bananas for dinner

mercenary
lost a piece of jade
wife moved to colorado
nobody wears halloween costume

full moon flies across black sky
above market roof
where young lovers hide in shadows
a fish seller sleeps
two boys dance in truck lights

a woman with three bags of rice
sits alone near fur coat store
counting a grain

landless chinese man
trailed by wife
tired of the city
labors their belongings
in plastic bags on thin shoulders

incognito nature shadow on the wall

blind man stumbles into sleep
a pile of rubbish at his feet

a man pedals past
husband & wife scavengers
steal night with plastic bags
pillaging trash cans
seeking coal leftovers
they can sell - or better still
use

people rolled in blankets on wood slats
dying of cancer
talk

a broken road their fragment of someone's dream

old grey haired man
observes ghosts
dancing through soft night shadows
curling around dark thick shanghai

chinese autumn festival

ah, autumn moon rises
orange as
freshman lovers scramble
hearts inside darkness
+
autumn moon
dances with black sky
through night

moon, autumn's light
cakes, family, friends
laughing down below

wow! look at the autumn moon
rising orange,
black mountain
hides it's intention,
riding black sky
it turns white
