travels to the east

verse 1:
across the
ocean’s-pacific/
going through
emotions-prolific/
revoking the simplistic/
mind open-terrific/
motions-specific/
scopin’ the mystic/
i’ve bedridden-malices/
did-it-as i visited
forbidden-palaces/
done-exciting
from-writings
been-given-calluses/
when i envision–n-lysis/
show a-hidden-paralysis/
at the-arisen-chalices/
prow of the fortress/
saw mao’s portraits/
disavow the corporate/
that now contorts-it/
i’m wowed fortunate/
that my abilities
are not disproportionate/
to my activities
in beijing where i’m staying
at cnu i’d be seeing-you/
raising my potential is essential
ga-zing while i’m pra-ying
feeling free-&-new/
by being-true to me-&-you/
so i told the judges
lay the gavels-at-peace/
and start to embark
on travels-to-the-east…
hook:
[inviting a gaggle to the feast/)(on the beats)(
all the rabble in the streets/)(a speaker entreats)(
uprising unravels the beasts/)(that’ll teach)(
the unknown shown in poems/)(bout travels to the east)(…] x2

verse 2:
at the lama-temple/
i’m on-the-mental/
where-i-begin
pursuing-the-unknown-so/
there-i-am
doing-gongyo/
surveying-buddhist-
relics-entreating/
conveying-the-truest-
well-picked-teachings/
spraying-new-twists
-&-smells-mixed-seeping/
making the vacant
fragrant/
scents of incense
dispenses sandalwood/
and on panels
candles-stood/
shimmering
glimmering/
emergence under gold
-painted-stupas/
merchants-sold-
tainted-buddhas/
convergence as i bold-
ly told-acquainted-sutras/
to deities, conceivably/
i can say-for-certain
laypersons/
are aware there’s
donation-quotas/
for invocation-bestowals
near pagodas/
a lama-priest
holds a-cell-phone/
i don’t believe-it
thought he’d leave-it
the-h-ll-alone/
but i calm-the-beast/
aroused, because i refuse
to house or espouse
wrong-beliefs/
my mouth’s voice
does the buddha’s-work/
and now here’s how
i conclude-the-work/
without insight they might
accuse
“this dude’s-berserk”/
but my aptitude-to-convert/
came from my search
across the earth/
as i dabble-in-the-peace/
from my travels-to-the-east…
[hook]

verse 3:
greet-splendors/
street-vendors/
treat meat-tender/
and sell neat-blends-of/
scorpion-skewers
still-squirmin’g/
hear my story-
&-wrongdoers feel-uncertain/
about the historian-
schooler’s real-sermon/
ignore-me-
& viewers will-determine/
themselves
the stank of rank
sewers that could
k!ll-vermin/
it’s a funny-feeling
that passes by nostrils-amiss/
in this metropolis
with an over 20-million
populace/
yet this country’s-appealing
for my inheritors
i rhyme-these/
lines.-please take a
long-view at han-zi
the characters in chinese/
the pinyin-helps/
i can envision the
dominion’s-wealth/
and see the minions-felt/
despite opinions-helt/
to opposite-effects
-stow-it/
they got lots-to-get-yet-
&-know-it/
get-this-&-ride
the bona-fide public-transits/
to witness-in-stride
how the rustic-transmits/
to modern. a thought-earned
through prolonged-contemplation/
my long-conversation
is this song’s-invitation/
to those
and other-guys
who never been-there/
and otherwise
would never transcend-their/
circumstances
made too afraid
& then-scared/
to make uncertain-advances/
they’re just
hurting-their-chances/
at succeeding/
like those folks
who don’t devote
time to reading/
the deep-stuff/
so they may leap-up/
outta nasty-fates/
to a more classy-place/
until at last-we-great/
whoever has the audacity-to-hate/
i shall gladly-debate/
as i even battled-priests/
who understood-
awestruck by my
good-conduct
in my travels-east…
[hook]
