Epilogue
(Miyu, sleepwalking croons. Yoshiro stirs, and
sits up in their kingsize waterbed.)
Noh's Arc
by Mrs Miyu Yakuza
transl. by Nicky-san
from busted Japanese into broken English
As Toshiro and I hugged jaw by jowl
On salt rimed steel rails of Noh's Arc poop-deck,
Above our ocean state room foam and fleck,
One chilling chime from ventilator cowl.
We caught the avalanche crash, gouge and growl,
Our livestock holds creaked baulkheads' slow wreck,
St Petersburg heaped still horizon speck,
El Nino pushed, La Nina pulled more foul.
Giant steamboat stoked by lookalikes yet raw
Defrosts us first, then species two by two,
Our jellyfish, seakraits and robot crew,
El Nino pushed, La Nina pulled more foul.
Giant steamboat stoked by lookalikes yet raw
Defrosts us first, then species two by two,
Our jellyfish, seakraits and robot crew,
A thousand years on, an icebreaker thaw.
Ancestral spooks trade under oldest name,
If pilot Stonefish lookalike acts tame.
(Chorus)

Toshiro - I love you, Miyu, for your sleepwalking
on and off the Wonky Wok, your addiction to
designer shoes, your white sake tippling, they
only make you more endearing as the years go by.
Our remarriage on our pearl wedding anniversary
was icing on the cake. If only you would put
down that blackmarket used taser - Korean hotplate
barbecue charcoal smoked dolphin could be
the end of us.
