Karma Man |
Fingertip sun at sideshow stalls, they throw the balls |
At coconut fur that hides behind coloured shades that blind your eyes |
Every child’s mother holds an ice-cream cone, they circle round |
Perceived unknown by an eye that peers from a hole in the tent where no one goes |
A figure sitting cross-legged on the floor he’s clogged and clothed in saffron |
robes |
His beads are all he owns |
Slow down, slow down |
Someone must have said that slow him down |
Slow down, slow down |
It’s pictured on the arms of the Karma Man |
Fairy tale skin, depicting scenes from human zoos |
Impermanent toys like peace and war a gentle face you’ve seen before |
Karma Man tattooed on your side, the wheel of life |
I see my times and who I’ve been I only live now and I don’t know why |
I struggle hard to take these pictures in, but |
All my friends can see is just the pinkness of his skin |
Slow down, slow down |
Someone must have said that slowed him down |
Slow down, slow down |
It’s pictured on the arms of the Karma Man |
Slow down, slow down |
Someone must have said that slowed him down |
Slow down, slow down |
