"In my lifetime, doing all the jobs that I’ve done, this is the most fear-inducing moment."

  I go out of the darkness
onto a road of darkness
lit only by the far off
moon on the edge of the mountains.

--Lady Izumi Shikibu (Rexroth tr)

  Out of the darkness
onto a road of darkness
  i go, illumined
only by the far-off moon
on the edge of the mountains.
