kamikaze

• "a samuri sword

  in the cockpit, a shaven head

  full of powerful incantations"
• "enough fuel for a one-way

  journey into history"
• "strung out like bunting

  on a green-blue translucent sea"
• "arcing in swathes

  like a huge flag waved"
• "bringing their father's boat safe"
• "a tuna, the dark prince, muscular, dangerous"
• "they treated him

  as though he no longer existed"
• "he must have wondered

  which had been the better way to die"
