fine weather
Mild winter weather. In fact, this kind of day may be the best time of the year.
Reading through the complete works of Takaaki Yoshimoto, volume 6, published by Shobunsha. In the book, I seriously read “What is Poetry?
In the book, I read seriously “What is Poetry? It is the act of writing something true that might freeze the whole world in its tracks if uttered in real life.
He quotes Sakutaro Hagiwara’s “Principles of Poetry” as follows: “The essence of the spirit of poetry is a longing for something that is not present, which is appealed to by this feeling.
In other words, to put it simply, poems and songs are based on “cries,” which are the voices of people before words, such as “wah” and “ooh. When they are sincerely translated into language, they become poems and songs, and in some cases, they become words that “freeze the world.
Every man is a poet. Heidegger was a philosopher who said, “Everyone is a poet, and at the root of man’s existence, he is ‘poetic.
A poet is a person who is able to express his or her ideas in a language that is well understood by others. I am sure that Matsuo Basho, upon hearing the sound of water as a frog jumps into an old pond, was the first person in his mind to shout, “War!
Go on, how quaint. He must have thought, “I’m going to try to make this into a language somehow.
It just happened to be a haiku, and had he been born in the West, he might have written a longer poem.
This “war” might be tears for some, clenched fists for others, and sighs for others like me. And for others, like me, it might be a sigh.
Mr. Yoshimoto says, “When you finish writing a poem, when you have successfully directed the fact that it is in prose, you have a sense of fullness or emptiness that is incomparable,” and this sense of fullness or emission “is somewhat like a feeling of possession, a feeling of self possessing self.
It’s not a very personal way of putting it, but it’s “refreshing. Whether it is worth people reading or not, whether it is art or not, is irrelevant. Just as Yoshihiro Yoshino, Hideo Yoshino, and many other poets were more attracted to the Manyoshu, a collection of poems by unknown people, than to the works of professionals, it is probably more important than anything else to compose honestly.
If you want to shout, let’s put that shout into words, either on Twitter or in a Note.
What a…uncharacteristic agitate.
For now, I’ll leave my sigh as a hebdomad haiku….
Hatsumode, crowded with people, loneliness is even greater
