Saigyō For Lot’s Wife

I can’t remember where I wanted to put this, but I do remember wanting you to see it:

Every single thing
Changes and is changing
Always in this world.
Yet with the same light
The moon goes on shining.

—Saigyō—

Thank you for distracting LW from economics!

Re: Saigyō For Lot’s Wife

That is beautiful; it catches that sense of evanescence in Japanese poetry.

Did you mean to append the waka to the discussion of Zen? It seems like it would have fit there.

Thank you, Human!
