I can connect with someone anytime, anywhere.
So am I not lonely?

Like a dichotomy, I cannot shake the feeling of loneliness.
Feelings that can be written down cannot be expressed in words.

Diversified "I'm lonely" and fresh "I miss you" become smaller and smaller like melting ice. ......

Because I can spell as many letters as I want, I tried to make such feelings into tanka poems.

Try to love the modern round-trip love song, the slowly approaching thoughts and feelings.



The first "Poe Label" collaboration single, "Tanka Men and Women", with "emotional fever wordsmith" lyricist "Itsuki Kaede".

The singers are "Tanka Men/Gotou 3" and "Tanka Women/Vesuvius Tomita," who are "poets who sing from the heart.

The improvised piano player is "AI UEOKA," a "roadside pianist with four fingers," who wrote the lyrics under the name "Setsunatowa" this time.

The painting on the jacket is by "Knight Monkey/Koji Naito," a "line blood fever and soul genius.

I want to deliver the 'truth' that exists here and now as it is as much as possible.

We asked Studio "Float" / "Masuko Tatsuki" for the recording, mixing and mastering of the single "Tanka Man and Woman", which was recorded live with these thoughts.


Who makes "Tanka"?
For whom?
Let me sing it with your voice.

Loneliness, Both Thoughts
The sky for two is desert

Sand Birds Swaying White Sunflowers

Your Shape
I Love the Sky

  • Vesvio Tomita

    Mother of two children. I find a song floating there and sing it, like picking up bird feathers and pebbles on a riverbank. I play more enthusiastically than my children, and before I know it, I'm dancing in the park, alone with the sunset. We laugh every day as if we were joining our children in a dream.

    In the midst of singing with the voice of the heart Silent thoughts are voiced To touch the invisible feelings in song

  • Setsuna Towa

    Confession was always a question to draw the future. Burning love, thirst for magma, that person who turned the inner blood sky into a desert. Because you can only change yourself by sending out a message: ...... The name folds, creating a place of true feelings, and every time I actually followed the name. Every day, improvised readings are performed by voice input on social networking sites. ...... "I love you, but I can't say I love you, buds, divide the moon and you accept. A collection of love poems and love tanka poems by Setsuna Towa, aka "Improvised Poet AI UEOKA," was born. ...... The love I tell you with only a transparent tremor of the outside world is less than a tremor of less than one. The other side of the story, that is, the real theme, is "Natural Science" ...... "I wonder if I have fallen in love with the sleep-talking before dividing nature into seasons". I also wanted to convey the "environmental energy problem" that was considered at the same time. ...... The theme is "Our vast 'loneliness' that burns and thirsts and wanders so much that it turns the sky into a desert. Poehler Bell may never give up communicating, forever. Is 'strength' about 'how close you can get to dying'?"
