A woman who
hears voices
and much
else besides
told me
a story today
Om Shanti
about Jesus
& the Buddha
waiting three
days together
                in the desert
for the bus
neither with
much faith
while they wait
for the bus
neither with
much faith
while they wait
                half-dead
they're never
getting back
Om Shanti
never to see
water again
they're never
getting back
Om Shanti
never to see
water again
                but if they do
they promise
their support
should the other
ever need it
if the bus
ever comes
they promise
their support
should the other
ever need it
if the bus
ever comes

 
Oh that would need a spill!
