Makiwara is pleased to announce that her collection of original poetry now includes the other side of her correspondence with the illustrious and talented Date Saburou Yukiie of Clan Yama Kaminari. www.geocities.com/wodeford/makiwarapoetry.htmBoth inspiration and co-conspirator in an attempt to re-create a courtly correspondence of medieval Japan, Date-dono has made it an absolute joy to try to get into a kuge lady's head space. Our latest "duel" started last week on Clan Yama Kaminari's Poetry Slam. Judge the results for yourself. Clan Yama Kaminari sponsors a bi-weekly "Poetry Slam" on themed topics. All are welcome to submit entries using period poetry forms, even Western European ones. Please visit www.yamakaminari.com and click on "Poetry Slam" in the menu at the left to get in on the fun! For those who don't subscribe to Tournaments Illuminated, "Heian Poetry Jam" from the latest issue can be viewed at www.geocities.com/wodeford/heian_poetry_jam.htmAs always, thanks for your interest and support. M.
