I dreamt once of a monk; Who put paddle to water and wandered over oceans. My dream; My dream dreamt of women, Draped in towels Dripping their sweet sweat on his brow. My dream; My dream leaves me empty, I dream of celibacy. My dream? I dreamt of ancient monasteries Filled with mausoleums And gravestones to great men, A shattered core; Where monk fearfully Utter panic sing, Convincing, Pleading, Hoping, There is a pure thing.

THE BREAKING MONK
I dreamt once of a monk; Who put paddle to water and wandered over oceans. My dream; My dream dreamt of women, Draped in towels Dripping their sweet sweat on his brow. My dream; My dream leaves me empty, I dream of celibacy. My dream? I dreamt of ancient monasteries Filled with mausoleums And gravestones to great men, A shattered core; Where monk fearfully Utter panic sing, Convincing, Pleading, Hoping, There is a pure thing.
