Poetry

Hagakure

We each have our own battlefield

littered with the ghosts of uncertain thoughts

that linger long after we’ve walked away from the fight

to lay down one’s sword is never easy

to place it into the hands of another takes courage

peace is not a place

it is people

it is human

it is us
