Kiryu Antiques Fair
March 5, 2008We walked up the street toward the temple, chaos all around us. One side of the street, old women were selling rolls of fabric, old clothes, and huge old-women panties.
On the other side of the street, men sold artifacts of forgotten times: hilt guards from samurai swords, old buddhas, sumo game lists handwritten in exquisite and tiny writing, old books full of kanji calligraphy, boxes of magazines and photos.
As we moved up the street, we noticed a few of the off-shooting roads contained their own festivals, some limited only to local delicacies.
A Bandage in Four Colors
February 24, 2008
Shortly after I first moved to Japan I went to the Vodafone shop to get a cell phone. That day, I found this lovely stuffed panda sitting against a lovely red wall in the shop. The title comes from a poem I wrote which has the same name.
