Probably in a previous life I was a Chojutsaka (writer) in the land of Ancient Japan, one of the few that could read and go about with is brushes composing Haikus on parchment or rice paper for the Emperor or for my Shogun.
A peaceful man, I didn't need a Katana sword to defend myself, my words were enough to bring respect unto my garden, where Loto flowers would open themselves forming a holding crib for new born butterflies.

Most Honorable Reader of my humble words,
with you kind permission I wish to tell...


by the grace of IZANAGI, the God Creator,
I became Old SENNIN, immortal being before
IZANAMI, Creation's Goddess, gave birth
to all NIPPON islands, or JAPAN as them you call;
IZANAMI died when she gave birth to twins
KAGU-ZUCHI and HO-MASUBI, Fire Gods,
by the burns she in labor received
descending afterwards to the Underworld;

her husband, IZANAGI,the Creator God went
looking for her in the deepest netherworlds,
as the God of Evil, AMATSU MIKABOSHI,
the opportunity to take the Kingdom over he saw,
making alliance with the God of Earthquakes,
NAI-NO-KAMI, upheaval was then on the go,
helped, by making a lot of empty noises
by TAKE-MIKAZUCHI, the Thunder's God;

thing went no better on the Kingdom's land
as the God of Winds joined the mighty revolt,
SHINA-TSU-HICO was his flying skies name
and he was impatient, he just wanted to blow
and wake up from his sleep SUSA-NO-WO
the God that governs all the mighty Storms;

disrepectfully joining the storming party
were the most weak among the Kindom's Gods,
KURA and TAKA OKAMI, Gods of rain,
which couldn't think any better than join
forces with BISHAMON, God of Happiness
one day, for the next to become the God of War,
that will ask HO-MASUBI, the God of Fire
to call upon the Kingdom is burning havoc;

but IZANAGI, the God Creator, had a loyal
subject on HIRUKO, the Raising Solar God
who called upon a great TSUNAMI to punish
the fires eating the land and the God's revolt,
and a KAMIKAZE wind that could in the name
of the God Creator, blow their ashes and smoke
unto the waves of the great O-WATA-TSU-MI,
not only the God, but all the Seas mighty Lord;

the skies filled with a different kind of sounds
from the soul of AJI-SUKI-TAKA-HI-KONE
the new God of Thunder announcing the return
of his King, and greeting back the God Creator
were already SHINA-TO-BE, a Wind Goddess
and CHIMATA-NO-KAMI, the Crossroads God,
while O-KUNI-NUSHI, God of Sorceries,
tried to present his Lord with the best Horoscope;

fest was called over the fourteen mother islands
that form my beloved land that we call NIPPON,
where KAWA-NO-KAMI, the God of Rivers
wash the extending paddies with enriching flow,
receiving thanks from INARI, the God of Rice,
that will send all is messages with a fox,
and as peace descend over the japanese Kingdom,
nightlight will be by TSUKI-YOMI, the Moon God;

AMATERASU, the Sun Goddess will bestow to the
Kingdom a new morning, as the Goddess of Food
UKE-MOCHI-NO-KAMI will provide with the elixir
tenderly made by BENZAITEN, the Goddess of Love,
while AMA-NO-UZUME, the Goddess of Fertility
will fill the land with many daughters and sons
around SENGEN-YAMA, Mount Fujiyama Goddess,
and to please IZANAGI, the Lord God Creator:


and so, Honorable Reader of my humble words,
came to be the land of JAPAN or
NIPPON, the Land of the Raising Sun;
then...
in the name of IZANAGI, my mighty Lord,
to have entertained you....I hope.
