Screaming Bards of Mu Mu Land

life it seems
is not without its irony
for the screaming bards 
of Mu Mu Land

.. on lounging chairs
.. on deep-piled rugs
.. just laying round
.. reciting verse

.. my bards were still
.. and known to all
.. in whispered words
.. as mild as mauve 

and when they showed me to the door
I could sense within 
creativeness 
the un-ravelling of their pain
