2.321 : 3/20/06 : The Monk

The purpose of the cowl
is to obscure intent
the purpose of the surplice
is to get you entry to the tent
the purpose of the monk
is to dwell on God
and the purpose of this madhouse life
is a topic that’s too broad
if that’s not too much a copout
For some stupid daily song
Sometimes they get away from you
and this day has been hellish long
consider only
the image before you
Widow’s peak cowl
black arches hide the eyes
the hands are in their sleeves
or are they?
What’s that creeping up behind?

what
