this spring in my hut
there is nothing
there is everything
Sudo Yamaguchi
I wonder if the thoughts change if the reader first
encounters this haiku with the 2nd and 3rd lines
reversed.
this spring in my hut
there is everything
there is nothing
In the original writing one sees a sparsely filled dwelling
and the author is saying, this is how it should be. By having little in
material things, one also has the ability to know what is vital to living. When
the sequence of lines is changed, is the same message given? I haven’t decided.
