Indian Quickie

The muse is like gurgling coffee within the poet ready to ooze.
Home study primer serving poetry quickie’s off the shelf.
Lesser mortals have run off with the muse. Crying foul?
Nobility gone, ladies have polished their parlour smiles.

Brain drain from Manchester, the pull down micro mini muse.
‘Hello Madam!’ Mellows Derozio, the idol smashing heathen.
Mother Kali, chastening beer swinging reckless Indians.
Indian gallant chivalry whoring around after firang Gods?

Poetry is the exploding of image words, larger than life.
Super coherence of the conscious-unconscious thought.
The Hologram of expanding known or unknown elements.
Over to Plato, Good emotions? ‘Indian taste, Chetna’ - No good!

    I am so in need of some gurgling coffee muse. lol Sometimes I feel disconnected from poetry about poetry, or poetry about politics or society, there's something here that manages to reach inside me, my own prejudice be damned. And of course, you mention Kali, and no poem can EVER go wrong when she's there! If I weren't already one, this poem would inspire me to heathenism.

        A heathen is anyone who doesn't acknowledge the God of the Christian Bible

          Wrong.

          A heathen is one who does not ACCEPT God.
          There is no difference as you pray to a book, a picture or a statue.
          The truth of the matter is God is not in them.
          He is everywhere.
          And most in your heart.
          For me the highest form of Religion is to accept all religions for there can never be untruth in any of them.
          In short, If I cant respect other religions How can i be truthful to my God my religion is all I ask.
