a simple pleading


in your world every victory
i see carrying a defeat
wanting more
and bringing more!

teach me, therefore, the art
of living beyond that triumph
that i may spend none to shun
a potential beat!

pack my mind with poise
that i may walk the foot
in silence, paying no notice
to the throbbing of heart!

fill my marrow with calm
that marks that distant cosmos
that i never yearn
to journey, nor to fix!

make my eyes blind
both to tumult and success, detachment
that my heart may cease
the craving for more to find!
