我が肩に蜘蛛の糸張る秋の暮　　　富田木歩

waga kata ni kumo no ito haru aki no kure

            a string a spider weaves

            on my shoulder

            autumn dusk

                                                Moppo Tomita

from “Haiku Dai-Saijiki” (“Comprehensive Haiku Saijiki”), Kadokawa Shoten, Tokyo, 2006

Fay’s Note:   Moppo Tomita (1897-1923)
