HERE COMES BUDDHA(drunk as Bukowski!

Jealous of Socrates(endings always define us!
Now he Ruminates while his wives cook
(Food is an edible art(like love
Dionysius has followers in the hill Country
(retired rock singers with hidden habits-
who reminesce upon God Status to their grandchildren
Apollo is a rocket at parties!He goes through stages
though he has been said to moon people
Diogenes is doing a Cassandra in the kitchen
Chicken Little is watching American Idol
Rock N Role Play records are being set in the Back Room
where 60s spin stories of the 60s as Tall Tales
are spun among the young detached as ipods
They are up on the download.They have virtual jobs.
Thin Buddha cries when he slices tomatoes
Fat Buddha rejoices when he devours potatoes
In this Retirement Community,every god is geriatric
retired like Air Force One in a Desert Storm
to wait until their Legend can be restored
and they can fly high on to mythical planes..
