The Modjeska Manifesto
As life follows water so I am here
Like one of these oak trees I will stand by
Modjeska Creek be it muddy or clear
And even God forbid though it run dry
Here where I have come here where I will stay
Here where after a long night dawns my day
Jaya guru deva om: transeamus
This is where someday my flesh will give way
This is where I want my remains to lie
This will be my canyon of come what may
This is where I want what remains of my
Poetry and music I leave behind
To live within the landscape of your mind
Jaya guru deva om: shake the chains loose
I would like my children to come and see
What I can come up with here at the end
As I facilitate felicity
That everyone know that I am a friend
That I am the father of those who fight
To see who struggle upward toward the light
Jaya guru deva om: transeamus hodie
