Jaya
Your avatara plays with friends along
A street in India. This other you
In ancient Rajagriha has a strong
Clairvoyance about a man in view
Down by the corner. He’s just another
Ascetic beggar. You, though still a boy,
Immediately see he is a brother
To you. You quickly decide to annoy
Him. You move fast, putting dirt in his bowl.
He gives a blessing. He can see the soil
Has meaning. He can see your future soul.
He sees that you are doomed to be royal.
Two centuries of tomorrows you will grow
Blessed. Emperor, you will arise and glow.
