My two tanka were published in PRODIGY
MAGAZINE March 2026, THE FUTURE.
Although the tanka poems were published in the English edition only, as the original is in Japanese, I am sharing both the Japanese and English versions here. Please note that, due to editorial constraints, there is no blank line between the first and second poems, but there are indeed two tanka. Furthermore, the photo tanka shown here was created specifically for this post and has not been published in the magazine. Thank you for your understanding.

―Before Spring－
幾代へば呪縛の枷の解かれむや春とほく忍の雪中の華
How many generations
until the chain of spell
break?
Spring
still far away, a flower
endures
buried in snow
谷間（たにあい）に降り積みしむる白雪は深きをめぐり花を咲かしむ
White snow
falling, freezing, piling
in the valley―
in its deep turning,
flowers come to bloom
