A poem in this language written while visiting a ruined castle describes how the “summer grass” was all that was left of “warrior’s dreams.” Multiple poets contribute alternative stanzas to create “linked verse” poems in this language called renga. Several forms in this language are anchored by a “season word,” such as a poem set in spring that simply ends with “sound of water.” Two poets used this language to write a prose and verse travelogue titled Narrow Road to the Deep North. Imperial anthologies preserve much of this language’s early court poetry from the Heian period. For 10 points, name this language used by Matsuo Bashō and other haiku masters. ■END■
