Lady Kasa
Lady Kasa (or Kasa no Iratsume) was a female Japanese waka poet of the early 700s. Little is known of her except what is preserved in her 29 surviving poems in the Man'yōshū; all these were love poems addressed to her lover Otomo no Yakamochi who compiled the Man'yōshū (and who is known to have had at least 14 other lovers, and would break up with her).
