Pygmies and the Dalai Lama
I don’t know the answer but
perhaps the Dalai Lama knows
the final resting place of pygmies
who live in jungles unexplored
and never hear a sermon from
a preacher, rabbi, or imam,
who live in huts, eat fruit and nuts,
think disappearing jets are birds
their arrows cannot reach.
What happens when they die?
I don’t know the answer but
perhaps the Dalai Lama knows.
