Aspiration 19.11.'98


Have you ever
thought about this:
those who're clever
life away piss
tending bodies, starving their soul?
What is to gain
living in vain
dreams of life's pride
that to Hell glide
while lust of eyes and flesh cajole?

What can be done
to pass the time,
if every one,
whilst they climb
existence's mounting stumbling-blocks,
always look back
down a lost track
where they went wrong:
wand'ring among
legalist priests whose mumbling mocks?

A happy life
from birth to death:
husband and wife,
children and faith
all seem like mundane illusion:
what gives true joy
that will destroy
imagined fear,
sorrow and drear?
Hope based on envy's exclusion!

So much must pass
'tween Heav'n and Earth
where each soul has
only one birth
wherewith to taste good and evil;
it stands to truth
that right from youth
one follow should
what our heart would
and with love defeat the Devil!
