       Apparently the story of a young boy's damnation for unnamed acts, "Tomino's Hell" was published, I discovered, in a 1919 collection of poetry by Saijō Yaso titled Sakin or Gold Dust. The poet was a university professor and lived in France for a time, studying at the Sorbonne; his work is heavily influenced by French poets, especially symbolists like Arthur Rimbaud, Stéphane Mallarmé and Paul Valéry (with whom he became friends). Though Saijō's later work was ostensibly for children, it was filled with strange symbols and wordplay that could be quite unsettling.

!!!! A cursed Japanese poem that causes tragedy and death should you read it aloud!!!!
