Killing a fly
I hurt
a flower.
Kobayashi Issa
Smashing a fly
I wish I could
Kill them all!
Natsume Seibi
Two superb
breasts -
and a mosquito!
Ozaki Hôsai
To those who persecute it
the firefly
offers its light.
Ôtomo Oemaru
The cicadas will die -
but their cry
doesn't reveal it.
Matsuo Bashô
On the edge of the grass
facing the endless sky -
an ant.
Ozaki Hôsai
