希臘ー夏三句


夏なれば伏せよギリシャのTORSO*

小ささや西瓜哀れ種を吸いだす

不如帰もどれなくて忘れなくて

*トルソ(胴体)、希臘(ギリシャ)


In summer, avert your gaze from the Greek torso.
TORSO: a fragment of perfection, too radiant to endure the heat.
So small—this watermelon, pitiful, as its seeds are gently drawn out.
The lesser cuckoo—unable to return, unable to be forgotten.
