That's pretty impressive. I can't even tell how one could get from the Hingan script to the Japanese kana.
My Japanese is not good enough to interpret this, apart from how it's a poem by one Hirose. Anyone have an idea?
The kana part is "easy" all things considered. It's like doing basic cryptography where the letters are switched around. It's more like a guessing game that you piece together by looking at what else it's around based on context. (Which is likely why we don't have a wo particle anywhere.)
My japanese is useless for poetry. I can barely order on a menu and ask for directions.
