I've read your lips;
Studied your body language.
We're alike.
ESP is way over-rated.
I don't want to know your thoughts,
Nor you mine.
His Holiness has nasty thoughts,
As does the Dala Lama.
We are envious, jealous, and discouraged.
Powerful people have lust in their hearts.
We would occupy a lonely world
If our private thoughts were known,
Our actions exposed
When we're alone.
That's the operative word,
*Alone.
