capturing in prose
As we approach the summer solstice, strong sunlight alternates with gentle sunlight beneath thin clouds, making May a happy season for everyone.
夏至に近づく頃の強い日差しと、薄雲が広がる曇り空の優しい日差しとが交互に来る、誰もが嬉しい季節が五月。

Although we don’t notice it when we live there, places where people live can sometimes look frighteningly unnatural when viewed from afar.
人の住む場所は、住んでいる時には気が付かないのに、遠くから見ると時に恐ろしく不自然である。

お前、そこで何してるんだ？
じっと観察されている自分を発見。
I found myself being observed,
“What are you doing there?”
How many people care about the people who travel on commuter trains behind barriers and fences?
バリアやフェンスの向こうをゆく通勤列車に乗る人々のことを気にする人がどれほどいるのか。
