lnhammer: the Chinese character for poetry, red on white background (Default)
Low fog, damp brown leaves
mirrored towers, old pavement
overheated room
panelists talk up steampunk
gaze out the windows at gray

A repost of a sort -- I tried to post this from the San Jose airport, and thought I had, but it apparently didn't go through.

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.
