Aw hell no!
Shut the front door!
You're not welcome in on my secrets no more.
Don't tell me what's right,
Cause I'll tell you what's wrong
With all your litle lessons you've been preaching so long.

The critics don't really understand
You can't translate the poetry into prose
And so it goes
And so it goes

I wrote to Daniel Berrigan
Seattle, JVC
He kindly wrote me back
A good way said he to me

I hope that he was right
In Berkeley Thich Nhat Hanh
Buddhamind in Bangkok
Sunlight Gamla Stan

I do pray to the statues
Do not now attend Mass
Must be women priests
Thus it comes to pass
