On
this
not muggy August day
I
met my love Makoto
I,
a lean American dark-haired young man,
Had
no experience with goddess-like women
But
I decided to try my best to woe this Japanese goddess of love
I
can win her
And
began walking like a proud lion
But
then…
An
icy fear seizes me
What
if she doesn’t like me?
What
if she does?
There’s
only one way to find out
I
made it to her
Makoto
looks up at me
“Hi.”
I said.
“Konnichiwa!”
said she
We
ended up talking for hours at a time
