Zoe's VolatileWhimsy Translation Service:

Hello,

I am seeking a short 3 line parable, preferably of traditional Japanese origin, written in Katakana. The text should be arranged in vertical columns and will be used as a tattoo on one side of my back, so quality is important.

If you can provide links to such, or have the ability to write such text for me to use in this skin project, please do contact me here in this thread or in world.

Thank you,

VolatileWhimsy Bu

I wrote a very elegant haiku in japanese script which would be three lines but it's at home, if you want it I'll grabit when I get home I thin I wrote three different ones.

Ok that wouldn't be a problem it matches in syllables so it will be symetric. You only want it in Katakana though? Not in the real Japanese script or in hiragana? None of the words are words foreign to Japanese so they should a tleast be written in hiragana if not kanji.

I think I wrote one about leaves and two about love/lost love

I would say kanji would look nicest actually. But that is me. I am just adding the tattoo to a skin...Volatile is wearing it. =P

How about this I'll write it up in a kanji version and in a hiragana version. Usually there's hiragana mixed in with kanji anyways but you can look at it and decide which you like if that's a good strategy?

I think I can help you. I've typed out kanji and kana people want and sent them the graphics files to be used for tattos and stuff countless times. And if you want old and authentic calligraphy (Don't count on what you find on American websites unless you want to make us chuckle), I can google in Japanese and fetch some for you.
