Have found, and fallen in love, with a poet new to me -- Shinkichi Takahashi. This poems's from a book called Triumph of the Sparrow/Zen poems.
GODS
Gods are everywhere:
war between Koshi and Izumo
tribes still rages.
The all of All, the One
ends distinctions.
The three thousand worlds
are in that plum blossom.
The smell is God.
