The Divine Wind

Back. As I promised. Now we have here something longer, much longer. This is something i was working on during the holidays, but the idea is quite older. I will try to continue in my creations, to keep the flow.

The Divine Wind


Congratulations, fellow comrade,
you have been chosen to the most
special squadron on the japanese coast.
I will be your trainer and I lay
in you the trust of our nation,
This is no more child’s play.
Can you hear your ovation?

Enlightened one, you are about to prove,
to sacrifice, to make your move,
to show to his holiness, The Emperor,
do not have to be afraid of any terror.

Do not hurry, take your time,
finish your saké and wear your band.
Your plane is prepared, we worked overtime,
By you we all will proudly stand
This is your primetime.

The engine is angrily roaring,
my last cigarette, tie my shoestring,
close the canopy and strait to my destiny.
I know what to do, I have map on knee.

Bank a bit left, yes,
Higher, HIGHER, phew
This looks somehow new!
Haha, I will make some mess!

Does the Emperor like me?
Sure he does!
He didn’t let me to succumb.
All the things he has done for me
The many obstacles he helped me
to overcome.

I hear the sounds of american guns.

Hmm, this seems strange.
It is going to be thougher
I sense a change !
Everything seems slower!

Do I love the Emperor?
Well...?
I used to.
Despite all the good things
I have some doubtings.

Damn! It makes no sense!
Why should I die for this!
NO! It’s too late, too intense!
I cannot quit now.
Why have I listened to the emperor?
What a teribble fee to pay.
It has been a significant error.

This will be a full hit! Banzai!

Fellow fighters, our comrade
has given his life for the emperor.
He alone sunk the battleship.
