REALITY

So, we think we’ve had our fill of pains;
we’ve caused even more for our brother;
and to reality, who, over us, reigns;
we’ve given so much sorrow to another.

Greed and envy, always fill up our plate;
pride is a most arrogant master;
and, faced with

How is it that thoughts, deep in my mind;
keep finding new ways to come out;
is that how it all, is somehow designed:
how it is that speech comes about?

It’s as if my mouth fills up with thought;
until it overflows with words.
Without considering what it

In reality, life;  is a war of attrition;
Evil facing Good; in order to survive.
Each battle fought is a form of division;
all participants trying, to stay alive.

The dirty secret is that all life, lives on;
we cannot, our enemy;  kill.

a willing, deserving victim, accused;
to receive an unwarranted disgrace.

Sometimes there is no
