Color by numbers

These days it seems I am surrounded
By various eastern religions
Dharma and chakras they have me thinking
More and more about reincarnation
In past lives what was my position
Was I a tiny little worker ant?
A pillager of Sunday picnics
Was I a lion king of the jungle?
A predator of incredible strength
Was I a camel in a desert caravan?
A tireless mode of transportation
Was I a dog on along the road?
Begging strangers for scraps
Was I a woman with bosom?
All the way to her lap
Was I a pig living high in the sty?
Waiting to be sizzling bacon
Was I a king with a court?
With all the treasures in life
After a little thought and consternation
I was probably exactly the same. how depressing
