Buddha sits beneath the tree of knowledge
resolutely trying to comprehend
the eventuality of nothing.

The Demonic forces have been defeated
leaving him fatigued and resigned
to meditate disengagement.

Days follow nights,.. nights follow days
enlightenment seeming futile
without the proper adversary.

As a minute part of the "Universal Mind"
his lips part in a beatific smile
finally understanding the cosmic pun.

Getting up,..leaving the shade of the tree,
He disects a pomegranate piece by piece
Savoring the fleshy pulp.
