waka of budo adana: Abuse


Abuse
How dare you strike me,
A tiny defenseless baby,
Unable to walk,
Unable to remember
Yet unable to forget?

waka of budo adana: Risks


Risks
Make fewer errors
And be less likely to lose,
But avoid losing
And be less likely to win:
Plan, execute, take good risks.

waka of budo adana: Serenade


Serenade
With my flute and dog,
I wandered up the mountain,
Seeking better views
And a bed of pine needles
To serenade the full moon.

waka of budo adana: Oz


Oz
There is no wizard
Other than the little man
Or little woman
Standing behind your curtain
Pulling the strings of your life
