A Venomous Silkworm
I despise these degrees of freedom
Said the neo Diderot and the archaic David
I envy the liveliness of the termites
Said the neo Valimiki and the primordial Achilles
How could they embrace a poetic saint in trance
Wondered the venomous Rama and the Venerable Lama
Who saw the torrid life a prince and the princess
Wicked was the Neanderthal Freudian and Digital Darwin
Over and above my sheaths
An albatross is savaged and an ancient mariner is saved
These pearls of wisdom and crowded imaginations
They strike digits and cubits of wealth in times of diarrhea
Astral mathematics, astralopithicus, astronomic gaze
They were the gargantuan invaders of the Gregorian calender
Rest is known to us, first word is born as a worm hole
No one need to be a snake charmer or a sand miner to unravel the lantern under the rooftop
