you know that feeling
you get
when your woken by
the sound of glass breaking
and your not quite sure
if you really heard
glass breaking
or something else
so maybe it was just a dream
and you can just
drift back to sleep

but there is something
rustling
in the kitchen
that requires
an investigation
technically
that was
this very morning

when i arrived
the refrigerator door was open
illuminating a strange scene

there in the middle of the kitchen floor
sat buddha
covered in apricot marmalade

I said dude
what are you doing?
buddha hates to be called
dude
but it seemed appropriate at the time

he said
"it's that new girl friend of yours"
she is always yelling out
oh my lord
sweet jesus!

I can be sweet
sweet buddha
oh oh oh
oh my
that's it
sweet buddha!
