Of Moss Shrines & Rattling Bells

Moss covered shrines are impossibly photogenic and charming. I’m going daily to drop a coin, ring the bell and say a prayer

I also wrote on a wooden prayer tile which, I’ll tell you what it says once I get to know you better

Plus from my 44°C bath, I can hear the rattle of the bell as radium-infused droplets splash into my radon bath

Also, a portable grocery truck arrives today at 4 PM, remind me not to forget

PS Slip into this onsen ♨️ for more from Misasa:

Take a soak for more from Misasa, Tottori hot springs including video field notes – from short videos, out-and-about riffs, long soliloquies – plus poetry zines, and archival goodness, all flowing freely
