Inside there's a nomad who wearily wanders A barren expanse of still thirsting for more He delves into the depths of the deserts he ponders To count every grain on his sands of time shore Yet his grasp on reality's setting sun squanders All hope to make Edens of his rotten core
βToo great is the grief of this world, and I have only one heart bud. How can I pour all the desertβs sand into an hourglass? -Emperor Aurangzeb (1618-1707)
