Standing on the edge
I remain unable to move
From my stable perch

Blast from the past:

I seek refuge in
A land that begins at
The edge of our world.

Trains, trains, and more trains
On my endless quest
For the next city

Blast from the past:

Just sail through blind
These will go to those favored
Peak coincidence

Writing a haiku
On a bus as the world flies
By and by outside

Blast from the past:

Singing loud, dancing,
Embodying the ceaseless
Cry for harmony

Mud kicking up
Sliding down and sliding up
Push little by little

Blast from the past:

Comedy faces
Life’s contradictions and says
Something about it

No one cares about
Patching up ruined lives when
They are wandering.

Blast from the past:

Life remains easy
For the person who lives with
No sense of shame

Here I sit
On my way
Forever on my way
“When are you going home?”
I have no home
I have only forward
Somewhere new, somewhere new, somewhere new

A new place, new culture
New questions,
New challenges,
New places to see
One after the other
Can I remember the last one
A faint memory
As I venture into the new

Blast from the past:

The forgotten fire
Took almost nothing along
The road not taken

Up up endless stairs
Under the merciless sun
Skin slippery from sweat

Blast from the Past:

On a boat tethered
With the full moon as the
Shadows dive on down

The True Rulers of the Land:

The birds who always
Can find their home and the seeds
Digging into earth

Blast from the Past:

I must move
Venture to the next place
Never confined by a home
