It seems that November has finally reached India Chilly tonight in the vacant moonlight It is home that I see in my faint memory Of the tiger to be which is all that I dream Anymore for the haziness here doesn’t phase me ‘Cuz nothing’s amazing except when it’s wavy And all that I am is now lazy with smog But I’m grinding through time like an old, rusty cog So in helping them grow like a gardener of minds Cultivating the youth that is mine in decline Far behind is it gone and where once it stood thus Is pollution and poison and ash clouds of dust Just gun shots exploding in satellite skies Contact languages have become my contact highs I can still take a sip of the foamy fizz phony But with every drop I feel more like bologna On some kind of journey, a quest to be best To be better than beast and be least of all blessed
