Turning around,
I see my shadow
in the moonlight

by: Sumitaku Kenshin (Tr. Nakaoka Naomi & Kurose Hiroko)

The deadline for this challenge will coincide with the anniversary of Sumitaku Kenshin’s death, so I thought it’d be appropriate to commemorate this remarkable poet with music from Naviar’s community.

Sumitaku Kenshin was a haiku poet who practiced free-form haiku. He started writing poety after being diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia, and dedicated the last 2 years of his life to haiku, leaving 281 poems, mostly published by the free-form haiku magazine Kaishi.
