it was ok

Ikkyu, horny old lecher, epitome of Zen sickness
bottomless desires lead to bar and brothel
dressed up flowery language, philosophical games
baffle future generations of earnest practitioners

wordless objects you call women never speak
simple receptacles for passion, emblems of pride
where is their your warmth; not in your mind
better to sit contemplate humanity
