The sky is simmering sky-blue
The sea is shimmering emerald-green
The waistlines are grotesque
Such is the march of humanity
Although, to the west side
Nudist bathing is positively encouraged
Yet, for myself
Speaking completely politically incorrectly
I would have them have a test to be passed
A sort of measure of human responsibility
For if you are not responsible for yourself
Who might we be able to ask you to care for
The port is a busy port
The berths are very wide, very long
Room for all of those who eat all you can for $5
Such is the intrusion of tourists
Though at the island’s extremities
Silent contemplation is actively made available
Yet, for myself
Speaking in line with one who does
I would make daily meditation mandatory
