    Unfortunately, I'm going to be busy with schoolwork again soon. I figure I might as well post something other than fanfiction, so here are some sijo (a Korean poetry form).

    Here's an explanation of the structure of Sijo: http://www.sejongculturalsociety.org/writing/current/resources/sijo_guide.php

    Anyway, I hope you like my poems. Warning: some content is a little racy.

    Late Snowfall​

    If winter were my lover,
    she would keep me waiting at home,
    Until she'd burst in, and, still,
    lay me down on a crystal bed.
    Under incandescent lights,
    her sparkling face reflects my own.



    Her Supreme Dissatisfaction
    Orion is Osiris,
    near his sister-lover Isis.
    Three stars form his missing piece—
    his sword is sharp, and standing tall.
    And yet, at the tip of the shaft,
    M42, gapes a black hole.



    Streaming​

    The torrential rain rages
    with leaden bullets of water,
    Overflowing drains and streams
    reflect my dried rose colored flood.
    These dulling pains make me want to cry—
    does the world feel the same?
