The interplay
of colors

wears out
the eye
the din
of many tones
deafens
the ear
mixing all five
flavors
spoils
the taste

Mt. Fuji
too much
hunting
and chasing
wounds us
rare gems
tempt,
then rob
their owner
the wise
do not respond
to the eye,
ear, or tongue
they see, hear,
taste and respond
to their inner
sense
