With holes in pockets Can we buy? Gain truth from The lips that lie? Without ever asking Why? Is guidance in A folded map? Wealth within Bottle cap? Does fine champagne Come on tap? Does knowledge come From books fast closed? Water from a frozen hose? Motion from a Locked up gear? Faith from gurus Full of fear? Can oil flow From stoppered jars? Travel made in totaled cars? Peace be won from World War? Calculating sums from nil For naught we pay Usurious bills No winning wars where *ALL are killed The wind listeth               where it will...* We beard the lion In his lair Close the pane To breathe the air.
