September 16, 4:00 p.m., U.S. time (Sept. 17 8:00 a.m., Japan time), I participated in Wednesday Poetry Zoom Meeting presided at by Ms. Kathabela Wilson. I performed reading the latest Haiku & Tanka sequence, "Tilt of the Earth", which Ms. Deborah P Kolodji and I composed together. I am glad that everybody enjoyed it.

In this meeting, I had an opportunity to get in touch with different ways of expression such as a collaboration of art and poetry, music performance, and paintings. All of them inspired me a lot. It was a precious time for me.
