Light
and
with presence

These two things
have been my long-standing challenge

The hollow ◯ ring—

it is the moon,
it is the sun,
it is a ripple on the water,
it is a shooting star

The ◯ is
inside me,
the very first snowball
I ever made in my life

軽い
そして
存在感がある

このふたつが
長年の課題だ

中空の◯指輪

月であり
太陽であり
水紋であり
流れ星でもある
その◯は

私の中では
生まれて初めて
作った雪玉です

Seeds Picked in Maui

I used to call them
*Star seeds*

but I recently learned
their true name is
Beechnuts

Those little seeds,
with their faint, gentle sweetness

carry within them
the memories of the earth and the sun

Glistening silver,
they melt into the waves—
fragments of a dream

マウイで拾った種

Star seedと
呼んでいたけど

Beechnuts
という名だと
最近知った

ほんのり甘い
その種は

大地と太陽の
記憶を宿す

銀色に輝きながら
波間に溶けゆく
夢の欠片

I line up the things
I’ve made
as if to say,
“Look at this—
every last one.”

Even the person looking
might find it suffocating

But ever since I started
placing green in between them gives space to take a break from my work with emotional attachment

taking photographs of the plants and trees
that catch my eye
has become one of my favorite ways to spend my free time

Even when the greenery is this dense,
it somehow feels like gives me a peaceful space

Perhaps because they simply exist there,
without any pretense,
with the quiet generosity of simply being alive

maybe it’s because these things,
which have no heart,
silently answer
the question that draws me to them for no reason

the question of existence itself

私が作ったものを
これでもかと並べて

見せられる方も
息苦しいかと

合間に緑を
入れるように
なってから

目に入る草木を
写真に残すことが
余暇の楽しみに
なっている

これだけ緑が
密集していても　
余白のように
感じるのは

気を衒うことなく
ただそこにある
生きる余裕と

心を持たない
はずのものに
理由なく
惹きつけられる
存在への問いに

無言で答えている
からかもしれない

Blur

In a photograph—
in the one fleeting instant it blurs,
light comes to live

In a person—
in their wavering / unsteadiness,
the exhalation of the soul takes residence

Blur

写真は
ブレる一瞬に　
光が棲む

人は
揺らぎに
魂の吐息が宿る
