Hungry Ghosts and Intergalactic Bodhisattvas

Apocalyptic
dreams of Mara raining fire
down upon us all.

Choking on tear gas
We all screamed out for justice
We marched in the streets

We prayed to Fudo
to use his sword and rope as
a force for justice.

Petty tyrant hate
cult zombies burned everything
to the bloody ground.

Hungry ghosts with their
insatiable appetites
could not be appeased.

They brought fascism;
hatred, greed, and delusion,
started civil war.

As everything burned
we sat with the nature of
our impermanence.

Intergalactic
Bodhisattvas heard our cries,
and came to help us.

Kwan Yin saved us all,
brought back compassion and joy,
helped us start again.

When everything falls,
we can build it all again,
just better this time.
