Ueno

when will the flower bloom ?
by the pond of Ueno park
 and the ducks will swim again
with the black Kois, gaping for food

and the bridge would be full of hawkers
smell of warm Oden in the air
    an old guy on the bridge
pointing to a rare catfish he saw

Ameya-Yokocho would be lively
    the kebab guys would've learnt a few new lines
under the JR railroad
   I wonder if the salmon would be good in spring too

ah, how I miss it so much
    every single part
 the rejection, the acceptance and weirdness
    of Ueno town.
