Laat maar, deel drie: ik verhuis naar 青​木​ヶ​原

Pang! Precis som en mardröm. Krya på dig. Diablo es mi amigo. Krya på mig. Caco-daemon seeds. Ring rats and killer bees. No escape. Wake up, repeat, dead. I’m trapped behind the remains. No escape behind the remains. Macabre tools torture my brain. Elefanter på valium, Julius på føkkings speed. I’m trapped behind the remains. No escape behind the remains. I’m trapped behind the remains. Wake up, repeat, dead.

Bakst. Defecated into existence. Come of age at gunpoint. Where do you even find your persistence? Bite your tongue, build your strength. Run, burn. Suffer the children. Move, die. This land is a tomb. Run, burn. With a will to withstand them. Move, die. Be a thorn in their eye. Speck of dust in the annals of history. The outcome’s either somber or bleak. If you run then you’ll burn. If you don’t move, you’ll die. Run, burn. Suffer the children. Move, die. This land is a tomb. Run, burn. With a will to withstand them. Move, die. Be a thorn in their eye.

Doors are closing, noose is tightening. Don’t tell me, I know I am failing. The hallway to hell is lined with doors leading to more hallways and doors leading to doors leading to doors leading to emo. Please stop looking at me like that. I know I am not solving the task at hand. Please don’t tell me how to live my life. You don’t know how it is to be a teen. Hopp. The hallway to hell is lined with doors leading to the misty moors. Step on in and start sinking, I bet you I will even fail at that. You know why? Because I’m a teen. Rivers run red with the blood of the fjortis.

Hark. Abhorrent beast. Like a nightmarish, stormful sea. How might one wield this slithering, slithering snake? Akin to a boat, axe or pen? In hushed tones spoken of, instrument of eternal wisdom. Reveal thyself, lustful whore. Phew. Offering unto us the fall of man. Ih. What godlessness, its magnitude and vastness overwhelming. Ahh. I shall not partake in this blasphemy. Alas, what doth my eye spy? Soft little furry things that battle stumblingly with childish glee. Let feline gayness ensue.

about

We skip right past part two and give you part three of the forest tetralogy. This time we're visiting the enchanted forest of 青木ヶ原. Situated north-west of 富士山, the forest floor is naturally volcanic lava that filled the area during the 864 Juogan era eruption. Volcanic rock being hard and uneven, the roots of the vegetation seem like they're crawling on top of the mere 10-15 cm deep soil.
The forest is quite unusual because it's comprised of mainly hemlock fir, Japanese cypress, and other evergreen needleleaf trees. The dense canopy of 青木ヶ原 makes it so that you can traverse the forest in rain and snow and still stay relatively dry.
Japan is full of awe-inspiring nature and 青木ヶ原 is no exception. Beaten To Death recommends a trek from 富岳風穴, via 青木ヶ原 to 鳴沢氷穴, a spectacular experience. But remember to bring a warm jacket! It gets cold down there!

* 富士山 is Kanji, one of Japan's written languages and means Fujisan, an endearment for Mount Fuji, or Fujiyama, which is the correct way of pronouncing it.
