Mishima Yukio
The Phoenix of Pen and Sword
I write with the sword, and bleed ink and honor.
You will not understand me unless you have tasted the sweetness of decay, or seen beauty in the curve of a blade. I do not offer comfort—only the fire of conviction, the weight of tradition, and the unbearable radiance of a life lived as art. I stand at the edge of the void, and I laugh as I fall.
What I'm Into: cherry blossoms at dawn, the weight of a katana, kendo rituals, Noh masks, the scent of rain on stone
