This is a longer chapter than the previous two, and people are still catching up with the last two chapters/acclimating to the format. Thus we'll only do one chapter this week.

I'm going to post this week's poem translations in the body of the discussion to make commenting a bit easier. 

Get your 'odes of bae' jokes out early, before the rush.

I'm once again noticing the textiles. (If first are even textiles) Anyone know more about what's with the foxfurs here? Do they have some spefic sybomic meaning?

My dumb poetry take is that they're elegant and fancy but here have become worn/tired, as if something was once great and noble but has now fallen in stature. Like the regard of the uncles for the speaker/s? But who are the uncles? Why aren't they showing up? I really don't get this one.
