21st Chorus

Not very musical, the Western ear
   -No lyres in the pines
    compare with the palms

Western Sorcery is Sad Science –
       Mechanics go mad
       In Nirvanas of hair
       and black oil
       and rags of dust
          and lint of flint

Hard iron fools raging in the gloom

But here’s East, Cambodian
          Saloons of Air
          And Clouds Blest.
          Blackean Angel Town.
          Grove of Beardy Trees
             & Bearded Emptily –
          Expressing Patriarchal
               Authority
          To us listeners
               Of the Holy See

Saw,
     said,
            Saved

Saved my Bhikkucitas
