COMFORT X NESKO

A Violent Ending

The huge setting sun -
little remains of
its power

(tr. by Stephen Addiss, Fumiko Yamamoto, and Akira Yamamoto)

Haiku by Takahama Kyoshi: https://www.gov-online.go.jp/eng/publicity/book/hlj/html/202210/202210_12_en.html

Takahama Kyoshi was a Japanese poet active during the Shōwa period of Japan. He was the editor of the haiku magazine Hototogisu (previously edited by Shiki), where he promoted a more traditional style of haiku, as opposed to other popular schools which did not follow the pattern of seventeen syllables at that time.

Kyoshi also highlighted the symbolic function of the kigo (the seasonal reference), even though the more modern trends were already tending towards seasonless haiku.

ｉｈａｔｅｙｏｕｒｓｍｉｌｅ ✈︎ (P. NESKO)

I am thankful for all the kind words I got when I was hateful and spat in the eye of everyone I met

Some may have thought it was all for nothing but it has brought me to a place I never thought I could see myself before 

Even if it’s silly or juvenile 

Love is all really anyone is after
