AT THE SHRINE
Do people go to the temple any more?
Oh yes, to dig clams,
Thoughtfully, with bare legs, and kimonos
Rolled up to their hams.
Under the sacred torii, when the tide is out,
They scratch in the sand,
And sell their ware ten sen the dearer-
The holy Shinto brand.

FUJI-NO-YAMA
The steep, sky-nibbled contours stand,
Above the wasted gray-and-green,
The fog-tormented lava land.
The paltry ships upon the sca,
The homeless cloud, the driven bird,
The restless wind and tide-but he
To outward pulse has never stirred,
No spring’ S sweet anguish ever knows,
