gambled too much with you
offering worship devotedly
doing your chores faithfully
suffering endlessly i struggle
whispering daily my despondency
i am now exhausted, and wasted!living with you a life of tranquility
i learn: i cannot flee from misery

Note: Title taken from Vincent Van Gogh's
note to his brother Theo Van Gogh
and the content of the word, 'misery'
should be read with Buddha's Dukkha'
peppered and salted with
'Annata' and 'Anicca'.
