Japanese Calligraphy

The Pillow Book is a 1996 film by  director Peter Greenaway based on the The Pillow Book from Sei Shōnagon (清少納言), a Japanese author and a court lady who served the Empress Teishi/Empress Sadako. The film stars Vivian Wu and Ewan McGregor.

While watching the film I couldn’t stop thinking about the value of writing nowadays. How worth and respectable the act of writing for itself is today? Is still any beauty left in this act?

I read this book on holidays and although it was a bit difficult for me, I’ve been reading almost only technology books for the past months I really enjoyed very much. It made me question myself a lot and revise some of my thinking and experiences.

Here is a short Summary of the book.

“Bones” - THE KILLERS

Come with me.

We took a back road.
We’re gonna look at the stars.
We took a backroad in my car.
Down to the ocean,
it’s only water and sand
And in the ocean we’ll hold hands.

But I don’t really like you, apologetically dressed in the best, but on a heartbeat glide.

Without an answer, the thunder speaks for the sky, and on the cold, wet dirt I cry.
And on the cold, wet dirt I cry.

Don’t you wanna come with me? Don’t you wanna feel my bones
on your bones?
It’s only natural.

A cinematic vision ensued
like the holiest dream.
It’s someone’s calling?
An angel whispers my name,
but the message relayed is the same:
“Wait till tomorrow,
you’ll be fine.”
But it’s gone to the dogs in my mind.
I always hear them
when the dead of night
comes calling to save me from this fight.
But they can never wrong this right.

Don’t you wanna come with me? Don’t you wanna feel my bones
on your bones?
It’s only natural.
Don’t you wanna swim with me? Don’t you wanna feel my skin
on your skin?
It’s only natural.

(Never had a lover)
I never had a lover
(Never had soul)
I never had soul
(Never had a good time)
And I never had a good time
(Never got cold)
I never got gold.

Don’t you wanna come with me? Don’t you wanna feel my bones
on your bones?
It’s only natural.
Don’t you wanna swim with me? Don’t you wanna feel my skin
on your skin?
It’s only natural.
Don’t you wanna come with me? Don’t you wanna feel my bones
on your bones?
It’s only natural.
Come and take a swim with me. Don’t you wanna feel my skin
on your skin?
It’s only natural
