I'm trying to remember the name of a japanese poet during the Meiji era that killed himself while he was fairly young. I think his last work was about how the modernization of Japan was bad.

I need the name or an english translation of the poem.

    wiki-fu suggests Kawakami Bizan ?

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kawakami_Bizan

    It also suggests you may find some textxs at these resources

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aozora_Bunko

    p.s. i have no idea what we're talking about, but i'd recommend you hit up wikipedia or google yourself for better results.

    Unfortunately, western cultures frown upon arranged marriages, so the vast majority of people have to take risks in order to get into relationships.

    That might be the guy. I thought he was a little younger though.

    Thanks though. I combed the internets yesterday for it but had no successful results.
