Word and image plus health and beauty!

This is entirely shinimegami21 's fault!  Instead of doing priority (but oh so dull) things, I find myself thinking about the PB9 cards that she's been kindly translating for us and then I go hunting in an anthology called, "The Ink Dark Moon" for a poem in translation to match as I don't have translating skills of my own to offer.  And we haven't had a Word and Image for a while.

...OOPS? lol

oh this poem is intriguing, although I can't think of it's meaning so early in the morning! @.@

Thanks for sharing such a cryptic message with us!

Apologies for the enigma: I had the advantage of the footnotes!

Basically, the poet-lady has just been dumped and the guy in question has had the nerve to ask her to keep the same bed-clothes (that they last made love in). I think her poem is a polite way of telling him he can go whistle unless he wants to ask to come back.

Seeing as it's you, I'll let you into a secret: I couldn't for the life of me imagine what possible advice Gackt could be hatching for us with that - half-defiant, half-wistful - expression on hisface! But then this poem seemed to fit exactly.

so early in the morning? So it is - but i haven't been to bed yet!

oooooh. wow, he has some nerve to ask! >:O

Gackt is a devious man! We should keep an eye on him!

Yeah - let's do that! (keep an eye on him) Your turn of phrase is very funny - thanks for starting my day with a smile!
