47 верных вассалов так просто не отпускают воображение моих артистичных друзей!:) gerie_aren продолжает:



Всюду кровь и кишки,
пятнают свежий снег:
47 верных вассалов
свершили сеппуку
По завершении мести.

Spring snow is stained
by the mess of fresh blood and guts:
47 loyal ronin
Committed seppuku
Their revenge is done.

gerie_aren

Yep, here we go again:) The story of Forty-seven Ronin is not leaving the imagination of my artistic friends that easily. Another poem by gerie_aren (in my humble translation:)

gets in more details. I love the gory word images
aren't we all?:) I just suggested to Gerie to write a poem from a kaishakunin's point of view, describing an after-seppoku state of body in details and hinting on the second's feelings about the whole thing...


and the print you have found to go with it is especially gruesome! :D I love images like that.
Thank you! I tried to find an image to fit the tanka the best.

I think that makes it all the more intriguing. I am feeling very poetic, but I haven't got any good ideas.
