lnhammer: the Chinese character for poetry, red on white background (Default)
[personal profile] lnhammer
Eternity just might be half
   In love with works of time,
But if your work is in that part
   The angels give no sign.

—11 December 1995

Another once sold but never published because the magazine died first. I don't think I could write it today unless I was in an extremely snarky mood.

About

Warning: contents contain line-breaks.

As language practice, I like to translate poetry. My current project is Chinese, with practice focused on Tang Dynasty poetry. Previously this was classical Japanese, most recently working through the Kokinshu anthology (archived here). Suggestions, corrections, and questions always welcome.

There's also original pomes in the journal archives.
