It's been a while since the last time we saw Hiroshi, and now he's back at the poetry club. He's feeling a bit down and out. He can't even write a poem, he tells us, because the "heart of poetry" is "feelings" . Hiroshi tells us that the poem he wrote for yamada was written in such a way that it didn't have anything to do with her, and that's why he doesn't know how to express his feelings in a poem. He says that he wants to "date her" , but he'll have to wait until she's home. The poetry club is about to break up, and Hiroshi wants to be one of the first to break it up.
