MPI applications are usually written in C or Fortran, namely because the use case is number crunching. That's very different from what Clojure and Python are associated with. There aren't many scientific applications targeted to virtual machines or dynamic languages for this very reason. (I know about Sage and NumPy, etc. I am referring to LAPACK-style computations.)
