Though accumulated
power and wealth,
A King was depressed
with anxiety and bad health.
Once he saw a man
With peaceful face,
Mind without qualm
and not in any haste.
He approached the man
and asked ,O peaceful mind,
Life turning out to be mess
Have mercy , please unwind.
You must have seen
The heaven and Hell,
Please show me the way
King started to yell.
Mocking at him
With viscious smile,
Replied the man
Your effort is futile.
Asking useless question
such an idiot you are,
Heaven and hell, imaginery
Donot you know so far.
Being humiliated
And filled with Anger,
King raised his sword
and man was in Danger.
Instead, man laughed
This all I had to tell,
Glorifying self ego
is the way to Hell.
You have broken my ego
and have given a dent,
Realizing his mistake
King started to repent,.
If you desire for heaven
Man said with pity in eye,
Ego is the only obstacle
which you have to pacify.
