Poetry Time – “Hokusai Says” by Roger Keyes

I don’t know a lot about Roger Keyes, but I think we all know a bit about Hokusai.
We’ve all seen his world famous wood block painting called The Great Wave off Kanagawa.

What I’ve been able to crib together about Roger Keyes is that he’s a scholar on Japanese art, focusing on Hokusai and this may be the only poem he’s ever written.

If I’m correct, and this is the only poem he’s written, damn is it an amazing one.
If I’m wrong, and he’s still writing poetry, then he needs a book deal like now.

Take a deep breath, get comfortable, and enjoy this sublime work of art.
