– René Char

Man was surely the maddest vow of the shadows; that’s why we are shadowy, envious and mad under the powerful sun.

炉のうちは炭斗瓢柄の火箸
陶器香合ねり香と知れ

A dried gourd carries
charcoal for tea at the hearth,
Rolled incense is held
by a quaint case made of earth,
wood-handle chopsticks prove their worth.

While the darkness of the night
Wants the strength of yang burn bright

Befits the soft light of lamps
Wrapped with paper shade
While a night gathering wants
An oil lamp through dark pervade
