What can we make of it
Still putting that baby
Out in the cold night
The light of the sun
Grown tattered and old
At the end of its tether
What can we hear of it anymore
The ghostly music of those stars
The mouths of a thousand
Buddhas singing as it must
Have been the tinkling
Of distant camel bells
That hungry infant gurgling
At his mother's breast
