Turning the corner
that crumbled ages ago,
I search for a lamp.

At the wayside shrines
those pursuing solitude
calm their restless souls.

Fortune Teller

Stepping down
 
Bougainvillea petals litter a sidewalk, San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato, México

scribbling runes on fallen leaves—
autumn graffiti

the half-blind fortune teller
sniffing for a sign of life
