DRAGON CONJURED FROM A CUP OF TEA

 

I don't know if my grandfather Joe

Frequented all-night diners but since he died

It's where I generally see him in dreams --

Often multiplied so that he's most

Of the customers, quietly chatting

With himself in a booth, waiting

For a seat at the counter, glaring

At the change the cashier is giving him.

The next time we meet I mean to show him

Harunobu's picture of a girl conjuring

A dragon from a cup of tea.
