難事にて全集中すドーパミン四方をめぐりパーフェクトかも

total concentration!

due to the hard trouble

dopamine circulating

in all directions of my body

I could be perfect.

※写真は秋田県角館の武家屋敷・青柳家で撮りました。

I took this photograph at Aoyagike, Samurai Manor House in Kaunodate, Akita,Japan.

重力波ゆれきて往還千キロの一次元道疾駆しにけり

gravitational waves

rippling down…

I drive and hurry

along 1000km round trip

on the first-dimension road

3

ミッションを果たすが如し帰還の途おのづ浮かぶるわが頬の笑み

as if

accomplishing a mission

I drive home

natural smiles appearing

on my face

4

哀しみの深さたたへて濃霧ふる翳る流線 誰(た)のたましひか

thick fog

with deep sorrow…

whose soul

is the blurred streamline

beyond the windshield?

5

けふ一日ぎりぎりに生きはたて見む霧の翳りに君をみとめて

living life

to the fullest today

for the ultimate

I recognize you

in fog’s silhouette

6

風たちて此処に留まるを許されじ雲居の影に助けをもとむ

the wind stands–

I’m not allowed to be here

calling them

shadows behind the clouds afar

for help

7

ズンズンと肉のいたみは呻吟す労をいたはる君に包まれ

wrapped

in your loving care…

in agony

my exhausted flesh

moans and throbs
