We are Samurai ......

 Returning to the same place,hands across an ocean. Eyes across a skyso wide galaxies hide there. We are Samurai. You linger on the edge of nowherehungry for something, I have no mouthto feed you. Returning to the same placewe miss each other, we passso close we can almost touch. Forgetting for minutes:the Gods laugh at us. Here, kites fly in an unfeeling skyand a starving people leaveflowers on my doorstep. Frangipani, pale linen gildedpurple with the sweet smellof love. What use are Samurai in heaven?
