What a bhenchod

>As I pass through my incarnations in every age and race,
>I make my proper prostrations to the Gods of the Market Place.
>Peering through reverent fingers I watch them flourish and fall,
>And the Gods of the Copybook Headings, I notice, outlast them all.

>We were living in trees when they met us. They showed us each in turn
>That Water would certainly wet us, as Fire would certainly burn:
>But we found them lacking in Uplift, Vision and Breadth of Mind,
>So we left them to teach the Gorillas while we followed the March of Mankind.

>We moved as the Spirit listed. They never altered their pace,
>Being neither cloud nor wind-borne like the Gods of the Market Place,
>But they always caught up with our progress, and presently word would come
>That a tribe had been wiped off its icefield, or the lights had gone out in Rome.

>With the Hopes that our World is built on they were utterly out of touch,
>They denied that the Moon was Stilton; they denied she was even Dutch;
>They denied that Wishes were Horses; they denied that a Pig had Wings;
>So we worshipped the Gods of the Market Who promised these beautiful things.
