One night a thief entered Ryōkan’s mountain hut and found nothing to steal. Ryōkan said, “You have come a long way, and should not go empty‑handed. Take my clothes as a gift.” He later sat naked, gazing at the sky. “Poor fellow—I wish I could have given him this beautiful moon.”

Not so much in Tokyo. They're curious, though, sometimes stopping to stare at my dog for a while. The persimmons are ripe on the trees now, and the Tanuki get hopped up on the sugar at night, yelping and keeping us awake.
Spotted this one strolling on the blossoms in spring…
