ashram Volvo
whose hare would wind
the cheeselip lapward

for in the mint tree
hides the lapwing

whose jewel
did rennet
Sweden

Hare Krishna
hairy cursed thing
which all
believes Aleutian
ablution rushing chains
and all absolve bald
bold babominations
mintly tea

and the birds, Tippi, lily,
O, I am with thee,
in the phone booth of the soul'd,
amidst the catastrophe

the flaming lyre
whose notes
are gulls
eating the tender eyes
of children

hare' krishna love birds
riding volvo cano
all folding ode
in blonde amoeba Aristophanes
trippy
head wren
nerdy
