Dear Huan Yi —

          This is a very moving piece of work.  I think it expresses what seem to me to be your core themes with remarkable spareness.  It is warrior's work, and worth being proud of.  Thank you.

Bob,

Thank you

The title is a direct paste
from an ebay offering originating
in Japan. The allusion to Basho
is intentional.

Thanks again

John
