My teacher
Shares out of largeness
Spits saliva on my head
Like the insect larva that swells
My teacher
The one whose back I rode
With his shoulders and lift
I climbed to the pinnacle.

My teacher
Shares out of largeness
Spits saliva on my head
Like the insect larva that swells
My teacher
The one whose back I rode
With his shoulders and lift
I climbed to the pinnacle.
