an American fish in & out of Estonian waters

Three Buskers

 

Playing his heart out

as people hurry on past,

he sings for himself.

Strumming her guitar,

she hopes you will spare your time

rather than your change.

Breathing in – he thinks,

“if only someone listened,”

and blows his trumpet.

 

… from the Kalamaja Yang haiku cycle …
