Once again I returned
from my inner wandering
to discover that chaos is
everywhere hidden like
the assassins amongst the
people in different communities.
Like the acid corroding the
system and eating up the
textures of our lives.
People in different communities
are really mentally poisoned by
the pressures of life,
and peace have eluded them.
This peace can never exist
side by side with
chaos environment.
Kindness and compassion
must be put in place.
Joy eludes anyone who has
not sowed any seed of
compassion from the heart
to combat the fury
of the mind.
The inner garden we were
entrusted to protect
is messed up
even though it is
full of kindness.
Dancing vigorously figuratively
on the serpents
head to **** the
appetite of wickedness,
man becomes
engrossed in the battle
to safe himself and
his earthly home,
lest he becomes homeless
and a wanderer.
The heart filled with shame
and pain can no longer
bear the burden
of all the unnecessary deaths.
Only the dignified ones
can now take on that task
and save the people
from the calamity
spreading amongst
the communities.
