Where does your arrow point? Nowhere!
Yes, it points everywhere.
But for what do you aim? For nothing!
Yes, I aim
with tender focus,
quiet
where kami play.
Surely you felt the end?
Your name unspoken.
You died denied,
then buried.
Yes, my name lives on,
too long
to remember.
But who else
climbs the mountain
with purpose?
No one.
Who else
trembles beasts to flight?
No one.
Who else
swims the ocean
for hearts
pierced with cedar?
No one.
Who else
chars the fearless
and burps their marrow?
No one.
Now run,
for I begin again
with you.
