Salamanda Palaganda, June's Buffalo too, in the Parisian zoo
An old crone squirms upon a cushion
Made from Madras silk and satin
Her steel eyes hold a scimitar passion
For the skull hewn in Scarlatti fashion.
A cobra seer with the punctured ear
Slaughtered a Malayan sun bear
Night stood erect with brozen haunches
Zapped the seer and gave the bear back to us
Salamanda Palaganda, Oh, Palamino Blue
Salamanda Palaganda, June's Buffalo too, in the Parisian zoo.
