Sitting For Satori

The Japanese temple has
A Buddhist thing called Zen,
Where you meditate, or fall
Asleep now and then,
Which is when the monk
Goes on the attack,
And, with a wake-up stick,
He gives you a "whack!"
On your shoulder, or
Sometimes your back,
Instantly returning you
To your quiet, seated, fate,
To seek, through the knee
Pain, your enlightened state.
