Yotsumono :: The Slightest Blush



names I can't pronounce
their words, a reverie --
ripe persimmons

the slightest blush
her lips make not a sound

a good student,
hating himself,
does what he's told

neutrons in the reactor's core
at critical mass

taking a bite
from a bitter orange --
january thaw

一 月の解けしオレンジ味苦し
