Gorillas in guerilla disciple Gautama only
For a young child it’s very lonely
For he is not blind, but he can’t see behind
Into the past where soliloquies stand

Youth in five o’clock shadow hoards hyena
Bald prajna at sun shrimp

The soliloquizing Buddha popped his blemished bodhisattva
Thus coloring a man
Enlightenment’s eluding all the aspects of a sutra
Defying the colored man’s plan

This piece was written when I asked my six year old brother if he knew what racism was. He didn't, so I wrote this.
