Double Buddha



That it was special
was obvious even to me

No slime of time
covered this statue

It was oozing
monastic magic

This ancient
holy Buddha

What wasn't known
was that it was
a hidden tomb too

X-ray brought forth a sight
like finding the remains 
of a unicorn

A skeletal Buddha
laid in lotus pose within

Buddha
embracing 
Buddha
in that eternal silence
