Om and Amen.
I shouldn't know these things,
But I do.
I've seen through Frau Konig's
Magic Mirror,
And heard the secret notes
Of Mozart's Magic Flute,
And by these means,
I am eternally knowledgable,
And yet, remain, as an innocent one,
A perpetual virgin,
As only the temple allows.

And if by chance
You see me tonight
Serving communion
Under the plastic conch shell lights
That are strung around the portico,
Find yourself, where you are on the spiral,
And try to decide
Whether to go
Out or in,
And then ponder,
Does anything really happen by chance?
Om and Amen.
