Neither Python nor Bash come pre-installed in the Amazon file system (the shell is Busybox Ash).
But Lua does (in all 5.x series devices).

You have never said WHAT you want to put on the screen, only what didn't work for you.
Without any clue to just what you are trying to achive . . . .

Write to tekUI - it has already been modified to play nicely with the Lab126 X11 installed.
The project page:
http://tekui.neoscientists.org/

The modified version (with examples):
https://github.com/janetizzy/KUAL-buttons

tekui does not have its own thread, the contribution starts here:

And I have already set-up a 'standard practice' for extending the built-in Lua with <whatever> placed in visible USB storage.
A working example - look up (here) my CPU Report button thread.
