A poetry collection that draws the shape of the world from the atmosphere of morning, set against memories of Brazil and Okinawa, the presence of family, and the feeling of movement. Its light touch quietly layers the experience of migration with the textures of everyday life.

In the morning light, distant memories and present life quietly connect.

"Jikuu no Nakasu de" is the final poetry collection by poet Mikio Yonaha, born in Miyako Island, in which he layers island memory, the harshness of life, and a gaze toward the dead over deep layers of time. It has a quiet but urgent intensity, looking at both the brightness of the southern landscape and the pain hidden within it.

Mikio Yonaha's final poetry collection looks even into the pain hidden deep within the island's light.
