before the matsuri, it rained


before gion matsuri012, originally uploaded by wwc photos.

A typhoon is coming. The government reported that it is moving at the speed of someone on a bicycle. The cocktail party looks to be postponed to Monday. I went to Yasaka-Jinja to see if there were any signs of the matsuri being canceled. The mikoshi were lit up and out on display. I held my umbrella and snapped photos in the drizzle.

you may be watching a typhoon in your back yard; i am watching a tsunami in my living room. coincidence or universal harmony?

attempting to silence the voices in my head.
