Meiko Yamada isn’t ready to grow up. She spends her days pouring out her feelings of not having somewhere she belongs in tanka poems. One day, Nanako Tamaki visits the café Meiko works at and sees her poems. She resonates with the poems, and she forces Meiko to leave the café with her. While the free-spirited Nanako feels trapped by her past, Meiko lives within the bounds of society and hopes for something more. These two “emerging adults,” each wishing to be elsewhere, begin to change through the common language of poetry.
