Your Majesty!!!

In many kingdoms
the king was encouraged to sire
numerous offspring with his multiple concubines
as proof of his continuity virility.

Most kings enthusiastically fulfilled this noble duty;
many Balinese claim descent from royalty
and rumors flourish of concubines
impregnated by the palace guards
of an elderly impotent king.

Most Balinese bearing the honorifics
Anak Agung or Agung Dewi are well respected

As you drive around Bali,
you will see very old trees dressed
with a black & white checkered skirt.

Usually, these trees are very sacred
and a place of worship
will be set up at the base of the trunk.

The black and white checkered poleng cloth
symbolizes good and evil forces in balance.
