Poker buddies are friends I choose myself. Over these decades, it seems like most holidays are spent together.

— Even with countless words about the passage of time and reason,
nothing compares to a simple "I am willing."
If heaven has destined our fate, then we are enemies of heaven.
Under the moon, gentle songs accompany sword dances that rise with the wind,
drinking to the full the moon and autumn breeze.
Writing small poems, creating grand legends.
