Kwaidan (Ghost Stories) 1964: blind musician performs to dead warriors

audience with Buddhist tattoo
nude partials submerge in notebook

cackling trims bramble entrance
subtle proposals decay in excessive weather

put a three each, skin disguised as blotched ducks

Kuroneko (Black Cat) 1968: Nobuko Otowa returns, determined to cleave

**

partial as someone promising skin
address precedes arrival

fabric brochure elude intimacy

swathed in vague complexion
skin cleaves to fabric

kilometers tether to skin
address preceding hospital

partials stain fabric
nude promises submerge in notebook

sadness depends on fabric
address elude accident
