Into a bare handful of bone and skin

Pour just an ounce or so of flesh and blood;

Pour in a heart love-full as sea in flood;

Likewise, a mind sea-deep and free from sin;

Fix on, two jumbo ears, two goo-goo eyes;

Paint on, a smile of babe at mother’s breast;

Inclose a soul that caps Himavat’s crest

And speaks with tongue which honey’s sweet defies;

The stuffing? Goat’s milk, soya beans and dates!

Now cover to brim with suff’ring humans’ tears;

And bake this dish in gaol for one score years;

Take out and "garnish" it with pariah mates;

Wrap up in rag, prop up with lithe bamboo

And serve–The World Redeemer: OUR BAPOO!!!
