お知らせ

Currently, we are facing unexperienced hardship of Coronavirus.
I would like to send my sincere prayers for those who are suffering from tragedy.

While almost all academic and art events being voluntarily canceled, I have decided to make a small step forward in such a way nobody is under threat.

I will send my sincere prayers for all of you. I would be more than happy if it stays with you to help for your comfort.

“SF Shigun”, the book written and edited by Mr. Hiroyasu Amase, posted my tanka together with the poems witten by the members of his group.

I am very honored about this. Mr. Amase, thank you very much.

Mr. Amase and I belong to "Writers association aiming for abandoning nuclear power society" (president; Otohiko Kaga).
