#intranslation

“I shall make everyday words- /
the gambler’s marked cards, the common coin- /
give off the magic that was there/
when Thor was both the god and the din, /
the thunderclap and the prayer.”
-Borges

Link in bio too.

I live 30 mins away from the biggest bookstore on the west coast of Japan and they have a dope Japanese lit in-translation section.
