Solemn in their meditation,
Steely-browed in concentration,
Striving for the consummation:
Cosmos-powered levitation.

Flouting Newton's long tradition—-
Laws of physics in remission?—-
Seemingly with no suspicion
That Lotus is a fixed position.

Tinker Bell's advice unheeded
(Fairy dust perhaps was needed);
Hopes of glorious flight receded;
to the courts they all proceeded.

Gone the dreams of tranquil soaring,
Dreams of recondite exploring.
Close encounters merely boring—-
Bumping on the wooden flooring.

Now financial compensation
Waits on legal cogitation.
Place a price on degradation;
Fix a fee for aggravation.

Wallowing in legal thicket.
Was the guru's promise cricket?
Simple flight involves one trick; it
Says go out and buy a ticket.
