Kisen Life story

Kisen was an early Heian period Buddhist monk and waka poet. Little is known about his life other than that he lived in Mount Uji. When Ki no Tsurayuki wrote the Japanese preface of the Kokinshū, he selected Kisen as one of the six poetic sages whose work was to be considered as superior.
