THE WALDEN POND MAHARSHI

"You're under arrest for lowering the prestige of America and its name? 
By acts thoughtless, ways uncivilized, manners crude and condemnable 
You're deliberately holding it up to ridicule and making vulnerable 
Is it not anti national, to be indifferent to the founders of great fame?

"Mr. Inspector 'll you please substantiate charges before wagging finger? 
I've no time to waste, not let anyone, be brief before pulling the trigger
I've wronged none, nor allow others to do me what I've not done to them 
It's time for my daily unction and prayers, so relish not any delay to them".

"How can I single out any when you've flouted everything held sacred?
Tell me, whether you've any regard for Western culture, or religion sacred? Aren't you keeping eyes open to East and breathing in that air of orient 
And fed on scriptures to mimic ascetics in preference to saints Occident?

"Isn't a crime? 'll our ultra-modern rulers ever shun successfully the East
The cradle of culture, sublime philosophy, serving souls a sumptuous feast 
Is the Government justified in putting all into one cast to please its whim? 
Will it ever realise its ideology of conformity for unity by measures grim?
