Floating Lanterns [naviarhaiku401]

Floating lanterns
pushed adrift, my words
set free…

OK- so this didn't turn out in the direction I thought it would. 
To me, floating lanterns have an association with death, as they are so often lit in memory of a loved one. And while the sentiment might start as a quiet and reflective memorial, raw grief can quickly push that feeling aside and find it's true voice. Setting those words free is a hugely important part of greiving and healing.  
So, a very different reading of this haiku than is probably intended. 
The bed is a modular synth drone, which sets the peaceful scene, over which an improvised organ solo develops, beginning almost church-like, and then gradually becoming more bluesy and gritty, before finally subsiding. 

Hashimoto Takako (1899-1963) was a poet of the Shōwa period and editor of the haiku magazine Shichiyō. Even though Takako studied under Seishi Yamaguchi for some time, she was the first woman among the major modern haiku poets to receive her training in haiku mainly from another woman, Hisajo.
