IN THE CHAPEL'S WHITE ROOM - for Jon Scott

IN CHAPEL'S
WHITE ROOM
A BIRD
IS HEARD.
NO NEED TO
FEND-OFF TRILLS
FROM GARDEN - &
RUNNING WATERS
OR FOOTSTEPS
& STIRRINGS
ARE THE SIDESHOW - 
BUT AWARE OF
DEEP SILENCE NOW.

& MR. PUNCH
OF WEYMOUTH'S
SEA-SIDE FAME
LIABLE TO
JUMP-OUT WITH
PUNISHING-STICK
ZEN-MASTERLY FASHION
TO KNOCK US FROM
WHATEVER HEIGHT
WE CLING TO.

WE ARE ALL
MERELY TOURISTS
ON A ROAD-TRIP -
THE SCENERY
ALWAYS CHANGING -
WE COME
WE GO.
