THE EYE OF JEALOUSY

We all know of the good eye

The eye of the needle

We also know of the furious eye

That is the hurricanes’ inner circle;

But have you heard of that eye

Which pierces you like a needle?

The needle of the evil eye

Is jealousy in the form of a sty;

Which pierces happiness for free

and jinxes its possibility.

So desist from using the needle

That needle of jealousy

That harms even a babe in a cradle

With a mere look; you see.

For it’s the way you look

The way you see; you see

Which matters more to me

and causes more harm than can be

THE MIDDLE PATH

It is much easier 

to tread the middle path

but the more harder

to tread the difficult path

and experience both extremes

and stay completely cool at both ends

Then all paths become middle

And all middles have bends

And circles become a riddle

As they straight do run like a river

And separate to form two ends

And then from one to another

There lies the middle of all trends

PROGRAMMED DEPENDENCE

He wanted to

take charge of his life

And the life

of everyone around him

He never realized

that he was not in charge

Until life suddenly left him.

Independence in dependence

Or dependence in Independence

Grow up little boy; Grow up

It is all a plan, just a plan;

to mislead you

Move up not move on;

just move up

Until life’s puzzle stands

revealed around you

We really long

for holistic independence

Until we realise it is

mere programmed dependence

NO TOMORROWS

There are no tomorrows

Never was and never will be

There are only todays

And they will always be.

For everything about tomorrows

Are products of the mind

The same goes for yesterday’s arrows

For you will never again them find.

Live in the now; live for the day

And you will happy be

Don’t let them waste away

For you then will never be free

There’s no tomorrows

Never was and never will be

There are only loosers

Who plan for them to be

As long as you do good today

You don’t have to worry of tomorrow

Goodness is here to stay

The future you need not borrow
