Autostraddle — Amy Winehouse is Dead.
This death notice, I found to be written well, factually and with a perspective of details that bring this young woman’s life back, momentarily, as her spirit makes its way through the next forty-seven days. ~ yours truly, df
ねむれない冬の畳にしみじみとおのれの影を動かしてみる
nemurenai fuyu no tatami ni chimijimito onore no kage o ugokashite miru
insomnia
on the winter tatami me
steadily, I try to move
my own shadow
Hohdai Yamazaki
