Japantown Haiku

JAPANTOWN HAIKU  

                   —for James Kirkup


KINOKUNIYA BOOKSTORE

There on Webster Street—
Between Geary Boulevard
Downhill from Post Street

MANGA FLASH

It seems the shorter—
The better no sentences
Just a manga flash

NINJA SNAPSHOTS

Reading comic books—
San Francisco Japantown
Quick Ninja snapshots

CRUISING COMICS

I can tell by the—
Hardons which of the manga
Comics turns them on

CARTOON CULTURE

Japanese culture—
Seems so visual to me
Just like their comics

OCTOPUS

There’s this cute young guy—
Turns me into Octopus
My suckers puckered

MISS MISHIMA

So very S/M—
Describing the torturous
Tricks of gay haiku

AFTER SEX

With his neat grimace—
The thin corners of his smile
Nostrils still inflared 

TREMBLING LIPS

He oozes a bit—
His soft peachfuzz moustache kiss
How his lips tremble

DROOPY EYELIDS

His sleepy eyelids—
The way they droop down
Like his nice nutsac
