HOW I'D LIKE TO
CIRCUMNAVIGATE
THE GLOBE
In dreams. On stilts. Fast-walking. Like Hannibal even,
riding an elephant across the Island of Elephantine.
It's by Egypt, you know; seldom seen. What brought
that up, right now, anyway, I can't say. I heard about
in a crummy song long, long ago.

No matter. The Buddhist guy, he was pretty funny, when
he used to say things like : 'wherever you go, there you are.'
Cosmic riddle bullshit, zen koan, one-hand clapping and all.
Thich Nhat Hanh, or something like that. I think he's dead now.
