Keep These Broken Shards
Although the rice bowl might be broken
Way beyond repair
Don’t dare throw those shards away
…
Take heed my friend and listen to these words
Then do precisely as I say
…
Sew one piece discretely
Inside the sleeve of your kimono
Then place another in my pillow
…
Wear one
Wrapped in silk and leather
Loosely tied around your ankle
…
Together
These three things will keep forever
All bad spirits and poor lovers
From your bedroom
…
