Welcome to the ever-rising winds. Enjoy your stay. May you be lifted during your visit.
My thought on poetry: Enough said is much said.
What do the Kanji characters mean?
(In Japanese) masakatsu agatsu - True victory is victory over one's self.
Ascent
I endeavored to inhale
each ambered shade
that blesses newborn dawn
(‘till soul arose
far above torn cloaks
of earthen greys and muddled love)
and found in freedom’s updraft,
that every color
laid upon morning’s wind
was a perfect yet fleeting dream
