Poet
Poet is Hirono hiding behind a flat wooden cut-out: a gentleman in a wide-brimmed hat, a suit and a glass in hand is drawn on the board in black lines, and where his face should be there is a hole for Hirono to look through. The cut-out stands on a base like a photo-booth prop. Of all the hiding places in the series this is the thinnest: what separates him from the world is not a wall but a role he shows to others.
