Mourning

Learned a few days late of the death of Machiko Kyo.
I am realizing that this has been a year without music, without poetry, one where the spirit world is reclaiming some of the ground that living beings have staked a claim to.  One might say that it is part of the natural ebb and flow of forces, but perhaps there is more to it than that.  I will have to try to understand.  Rewatching Ugetsu will help.

"Actrice inoubliable" says it best.  If anyone can remain inoubliable for even a short span of time in this rapidly decaying world, that is a momentous achievement, one to aspire to.
