Buddha Bikergrrl

in a flowing lotus-pink gown
Buddha Bikergrrl comes to town
bike spinning wheels of karma
toes ringing bells of dharma
fingers scattering prayer flags
while her sidecar dog tail-wags

clocks fall off the central tower
the founder's statue loses his glower
but the mayor rushes over and pleads
no, no, don't water the seeds
too late, the flowers now grow
petals singing look at what you sow
