Ivory Dome

Across the Indian subcontinent
Impenetrable languages I hear
A pilgrim westerner, itinerant
May fate illuminate this worn sightseer.
My journey seeking answers, years I’ve trekked
First, Italy, the Holy Catholic Church,
Then, on to India, (no disrespect)
My goal: complete the consummate research!
Is Moksha State of Bliss the true ideal?
The intersection, Brahman and my soul?
Ignite new understanding, not of zeal—
But iris of existence, opened, whole?
It’s now been many years, since I left home—
But, I have yet escape my Ivory Dome!
