Events

There were meditations,
mass-events,
the spiritual summit for thousands
naked, sitting as Lotus
happy to show us

They, for some reason,
behave as ignorant saviours
stubborn in faith and believe

Yes, I like to know
there is no truth
and my only heaven will be
an ash-spread field

satisfactory knowledge,
for there is no more
