"Yukue" is a haiku work by Fujimoto Tomoko that received an encouragement prize at the 9th Ishida Hakyo Newcomer Award. Kiyose City's official list records it alongside Ikadai Haruka's "Kohaku" as an encouragement prize work from the same year.

A work whose title places the question of direction at its center and leaves room for the openness of young haiku.
