frosty night–
seven poor men
in a huddle
my dream comes true–
this spring my god
the god of the poor
all according to plan, yet
I’m cold!
poor!
from Kobayashi Issa, translated by David G. Lanoue
Ken Lammers of the CrimLaw weblog has been covering (originally at my request)
a jailhouse confession by a 21-year-old man, who admitted brutally killing his aunt
last week in Troy, NY. (See Pitcher Jailhouse Interview, WRGB/CBS 6 News, Jan. 12,
2005). It is an interesting and sad tale, with lots of issues for lawyers (and citizens).
