“And how incomparably lovely is the moon, almost greenish in its light, when seen through the tops of the cedars deep in the mountains, or when it hides for a moment behind clustering clouds during a sudden shower! The sparkle on hickory or white-oak leaves seemingly wet with moonlight strikes one to the heart.”
— Yoshida Kenkō, tr. Donald Keene | Essays in Idleness

“I’ve fallen out of grace and my body is rupturing spilling ichor while begging for mercy from the gods My wings are burning and their ashes are scattered in the clouds whispering the tale of my plight to the universe My soul is torn apart and it’s melting like wax into the earth while I plead and plead But the only answer I get is a voice pounding inside my head “This isn’t your falling, my dear This is your resurrection.””
— “Awakening” from Repressed Feelings (via anastasiasyah)
