 　W杯リーグ戦で善戦した日本だが、国内は地震、台風で大荒れ。おまけに、テレビ、新聞、折り込み広告は、さまざまな予防接種をタレントを使って呼びかけている。コロナワクチンによる被害甚大であるにもかかわらず。 　スポーツその他の祭りごとで重大事から目を逸らされることを警戒せねばならない。朔太郎曰く 　 ばくてりやがおよいでゐる。 　 あるものは風景の中心に。 　おそるべし、細菌と詩人！ Japan fought well in the World Cup group stage, yet here at home the country is being battered by earthquakes and typhoons. On top of that, television, newspapers, and advertising inserts are all calling on people to receive various vaccinations, using celebrities to promote them—despite the enormous harm caused by the COVID vaccines. We must remain alert to the danger of being distracted from serious matters by sports and other public spectacles. As Sakutaro Hagiwara wrote: “bacteria are swimming.” “Some are in the center of a landscape.” Beware—the bacteria, and the poet!
