bitty lit busy
ants stronger than cinder
-block busy moving

following the trail
beaten path busy workers
laymen in the grass

Bless the breakfast
As we still fast when the meals late
Bless us all who masticate
Bless the bunch
While they crunch the lunch*
At the noon-day break
Bless the evening as the dinner bell rings
When we all take bits and smatterings
Let us all give thanks
Amen says the laymen
Pensive in death’s silence
my mind’s eye searching
for answers never revealed
by mortal form --
An advanced soul
encouraged by the moon
& the cross unseen
my essence wishing
to crawl in a world
of laymen
Being exceptional
is unacceptable
In a dome of questions
With answers
Not --
Living in a sacred slumber
I awake again to sleep . . .
COPLA CUARENTA Y SEIS: This Bad Guy World
Religious hate-mongers pullulate
Gullets stuffed full make laymen loathe:
Sacred totem
Even football wins dedicate
« To Country, Race and team-mates’ Faith! »:
Sport’s anathème
When prayers rise from stadium grounds
For wins against rival teams’ gods:
Holy Crusade
Who plays whom on consecrated grounds
Little gods dribble balls with swords:
Pray in stockade

I wanted beautiful faces all around
But...!
I wanted to marry her his wife my beloved
But...!
I wanted to teach poetry women students
But...!
I wanted to hug and kiss any woman of my like
But...!
I wanted to roam as a vagabond country to country
But...!
I wanted to end my life when betrayed
But...!
I wanted to overthrow traditional politicians and let laymen rule
But…!
I wanted a saint’s life in far forests
But...!
