貝塚にシカの骨ある青嵐 米田清文
kaizuka ni shika no hone aru aoarashi
deer bones
at the shell midden
fresh wind through the verdure
Kiyofumi Yoneta
Fay Aoyagi, translation
from ‘Haidan,’ (‘Haiku Stage’) a monthly haiku magazine, July 2017 Issue, Honami Shoten, Tokyo
Fay’s note: ‘aoarashi’ (literary translation: ‘blue storm’), a summer kigo, is ‘a fresh strong wind blowing in the season of green new leaves.’

Ryuichi Sakamoto: My friend, a very young Japanese artist called Soichiro Mihara, after Fukushima he created a very beautiful piece [Bell, 2013] related to radioactivity. He modified Japanese traditional furin—furin is wind chime in Japanese—but in his piece, the wind chime does not pick up wind but radioactivity. Passing the radioactive particles, it will ring. So I think that’s the best piece after Fukushima.
My cat friend always tried running away from the wind . . .
