Monday morning waka

[gurdymonkey]

O complacent moon
Your fatuous smile does not
Soothe my solitude.
Nor is my loneliness warmed
By cold silk's icy embrace.

Is the dew still wet
Upon the summer grasses
as the sun rises?
To sit so in solitude
Oh such an inconstant moon

Summer grasses parch,
Withering as the sun climbs,
Whispering their woe.
Impermanent as they are
Such a moment feels endless.

Thank you. I figured as long as I was going to be all stoopid and emo I might as well wring a poem out of it.
