1 peopleTsuki to Kaku (Writing It as the Moon) is Sumiko Ikeda's eighth haiku collection. Its 332 poems use supple colloquial language to reflect on the difficulty of meeting others, anger and despair at war, and fleeting emotions in everyday life.
I must not write that I want to see you; I write instead, the moon.
