A Monument
by Hideo Yokoawa for Jeanne Shannon


When I reached the age of fifty,
I wondered how far I could go.

For a long time before turning sixty,
I've been thinking that I would go to any extent
when I reached sixty.

Since after last year,
the matter began to urge me, and
I finished this monument with you
just prior to my reaching 60.

Now I feel
Ifve done.

Furthermore, thinking of the fortuity and happiness of
our unexpected meeting, also, thinking of my journey to
Caesar and Buddha from this time forth,

sooner or later,

< Ifll float
off my stem

and go >,

too.
