MARA'S CAR
MARA'S CAR
by The Czechoslovakian Secret Police
"Will lose their doubts, and the torrents of their cravings will be cut off: free from all misery they will manage to cross the ocean of becoming; and, as a result of Maitreya's teachings, they will lead a holy life. No longer will they regard anything as their own, they will have no possession, no gold or silver, no home, no relatives! But they will lead the holy life of oneness under Maitreya's guidance. They will have torn the net of the passions, they will manage to enter into trances, and theirs will be an abundance of joy and happiness, for they will lead a holy life under Maitreya's guidance."
-The Maitreyavyākaraṇa
Original Song from Persona 5 OST
by Shoji Meguro
With the strongest iron, I craft the bars of this cage,
gilded with jewels, the diamond bars, shine with brilliant reflection,
Delighted you are, to be put in such a cage,
Smile and sing you do as you go in, a happy bird you are,
And with a firm kick it tumbles down the mountain
Long is the stream of blood down which my boat does flow
Littered on the path are vines and branches and freshly cut flower petals
The path by the river is paved with bones, good and ill pave the path,
Long and winding is the path I walk, and deep is river we travel,
Drunk on blood they strip down naked and throw their babies in the river,
Singing songs of madness and sin, they devote themselves to me, Mara,
The night is dark, The wind is cold, We set a fire for warmth and light,
And cook our meal of fish, we eat until our bellies are fat and full...
The night is long in this part of the city No kindling have we so we burn books for warmth
For books are still plentiful in this city, we turn to the butcher for meat,
pigs and cows and chickens and sheep, fish of every sort,
We cook a meal on the fire, and tonight we dine on pigs,
We dine until our bellies are full, so fine the pork tonight,
Then we march on the heart of the city, filed in ranks of ten by ten,
Our swords are tempered steel, we cut down their guard with narry a fight,
The sovereign meets us at the gate, he surrenders unconditionally,
Happily we humble his wife, and march into the chambered hall,
We raze the palace to the ground...
Another day another dollar
I pay my fare mask up sit down
Packed with coronavirus victims again
The train is late, I'm late for work,
LOOK RIGHT FOR TRAFFIC
The mantra says again
And I wish I had a little more money in my hand
That damn auto insurance just outside my reach
I hate public transit, so very deeply
BUT THERE'S A SOLUTION
A BEAUTIFUL SOLUTION
IT'S SIMPLE AND ELEGANT
WHAT COULD BE BETTER
Just scrape 400 dollars together AND
Get in Mara's car
I'm spectacular
Look at how fast I drive through the city
In Mara's car there is nothing not spectacular
