Secret Monk

will he get there
can he get where
will he take the stairs
climb down the wall

beat on the sides
walk to the sore 
for a pack of jujubes
slap his knee
and guffaw

hold a harmony
in his jaw
crash the Queen's party
fly to Zanzibar
on a star
honor God from
way afar
I never know 
that's my secret
Monk
