Toshiko knelt,
naked before the window,
watching the rain
and looking into the gentle eyes
of the one who would free her
from this Emptiness,
the one she had pursued
from life to life.

and passed it through her neck
like butter,
her rolling head watching as
thewakizashibit into his belly,
and they both listened to
the whispering ghosts
hungering for rebirth.
