February 10 - Potion
I'm not sure what the rules are but if it's «horror»...
·
Just a cheap sake.
The list of ingredients
is three shaku long.
Ah, for rodents I toss out the rules. Sounds like a sake with bite🖤
Since it's Lunar New Year today, sake should be replaced with toso which is essentially a «New Year sake»; as an added bonus, it's officially a kigo.
Oh that’s very cool! Thanks for the info. Is there a specific set of kigo used in haiku, or does any word with a seasonal connotation work?
I'm not sure but I've heard there was a list of 16 thousand words, so it should include pretty much anything imaginable.
There also are «500 essential» – https://www.thehaikufoundation.org/omeka/files/original/d22bc15ada2b14fa309f849c3fddab5f.pdf – many of which refer to things we Europeans wouldn't even recognize. (Toso is one of these 500, that's why I called it 'official'.)
Thank you for the link! I’m definitely going to check this out!
This one makes you small;
Does the other make me tall?
What will mama's do?
(apologies to Jefferson Airplane) 😂
😂You’re going to have me singing the song all day now.
origins in earth
alchemy makes it into
sacred medicine
Omg I love the alchemy reference! So arcane and mysterious 🖤
😀
Bubbling cauldron’s brew
Lurking power, dark and deep
Glowing elixir
This image is so good! I can just see the old witch bending over it with her face lit by the brew. I love it 🖤
Cherry chocolate chitin builder for covering your most beautiful enemies in hideous scales?
Oh absolutely, and I’ll throw a cherry blossom age reversing potion on the house.
