Byobu- (A Japanese Screen)


  
He knows how to observe the heron 
in the twilight’s lonely inclusion-
this blue dream that could vanish 
in flight if drawn too near—
head, eyes, ears pulled forward 
following the flow of fish ahead— 
until it vanishes from his sight
behind a screen of slender reeds.
