Mariko

Mariko Kitakubo is a tanka and haiku poet from Japan; 
yesterday's post shows her in her kimono 
during a reading. This picture was taken at Point Lobos 
on an outing there before the YT Retreat at Asilomar.
See the blue waters of the Monterey Bay behind her?


an accident
of birth ---
on this same star
trees, wild beasts,
fish, people

Mariko Kitakubo

(translated from the Japanese by Amelia Fielden)
