Saag paneer

but nothings sagging as far as i can see
baby
the only wrinkles youve got are between
the here and now
keep the chutney they go well with the roganjosh

this could be the best indian ive ever had
north or south i have lost my compass
that was you
now im freestyling thru the leaves of the bodhi tree
would you like an extra naan to wipe up the honey sauce ?

i think ill have chapati this time
and a good time
every time
you heed my advice and forego shaving yr armpits for two days
this thing is just like agedashi only firmer

CANTO CXVII (THE LAST DAYS)

whr art thou narasoma?
       i hv seen the sacred flies fly
       into the mouth of a rotting elephant.
       i hv seen the blood red slick earth.
       i hv seen
                      the world come to an end.

i am tired. i hv stopped fixing the wirus on my skirt. my hair falls in ropes about my face.

whr is yr headgear of pure gold? yr arrows of burnished wood? yr five-o-clock shadow?

no birds sing.

vultures fly in circles.

dharma is happy, i know.

he wdve shaved u himself if he knew
vishnu had long gotten sick of u.
