Early October

One legged
Walk to the shop.
To my right
Large new block
Incomplete
Grey concrete.

To the west
Low in the sky
The early October
Afternoon sun
Dazzles and blinds.

Looking ahead
Some beautiful sights
Like a girl from behind.
Long blond hair
Grey woollen tights
Figure divine.

Underfoot-
Chestnut cases
Without any
Nuts, many
Little apples,
Linden leaves-

And then the doubts began
I hope she’s not a bakku-shan!
