Television, with its on-the-spot and vivid coverage of the biggest news events, has not only eliminated newspaper extras but has made superfluous much old-fashioned "color" writing. (It has affected us too: a reader will find far fewer descriptions in TIME than in the past of heads of state stepping down from planes or getting into their limousines.)

While his verses in translation lose the rhythm and most of the overtones and associations that the original words have for the Japanese, they nonetheless give vivid insights into an unhappy past and remorseful present.
