All along you've claimed I'm wrong, You've preached Karma's A true force For life. Then you're the one, There's no mistake, With Karma You re- Incarnate. Your next life Is rightly rife With all you Thought was missing: Eyes now green, or blue or two; Nose is small, or straight; Your clothes are cool, ripped and fitting; You'll have it all. Friends to rely on; Family to depend on. Money is no problem now, Your weight is couture right; Your teeth are straight and yours; Your hair has sheen, body, curl; It's straight and colour fast; Your skin is clear, white, black, brown or rainbow; Your mind is bright and not yet full. This time round Parents are happy With whom they've found. And your education Has opened doors Of possibilities to explore; And depression is no more. Your outlook Looks sure. But you're not into that. Vanity is no reward; Clearly that would be  insanity, Our present life's worth more. With Karma, There's no debate, Its outcomes choose Unknown dates And rules. We reap, We sell. We buy, We sew. One can't recall Previous lessons From former lives With life Regression. Just live your life In truth and justice, In the light, Or even darkness. For Karma will echo back With a knife-like strike To reverse good fortune In your afterlife; In your next life, But not in this life. Still, I think, You're hedging bets, Karma's not Been proven... yet. But just in case You might be right, I'll live life well. Enjoy this life.

Karma Now
All along you've claimed I'm wrong, You've preached Karma's A true force For life. Then you're the one, There's no mistake, With Karma You re- Incarnate. Your next life Is rightly rife With all you Thought was missing: Eyes now green, or blue or two; Nose is small, or straight; Your clothes are cool, ripped and fitting; You'll have it all. Friends to rely on; Family to depend on. Money is no problem now, Your weight is couture right; Your teeth are straight and yours; Your hair has sheen, body, curl; It's straight and colour fast; Your skin is clear, white, black, brown or rainbow; Your mind is bright and not yet full. This time round Parents are happy With whom they've found. And your education Has opened doors Of possibilities to explore; And depression is no more. Your outlook Looks sure. But you're not into that. Vanity is no reward; Clearly that would be  insanity, Our present life's worth more. With Karma, There's no debate, Its outcomes choose Unknown dates And rules. We reap, We sell. We buy, We sew. One can't recall Previous lessons From former lives With life Regression. Just live your life In truth and justice, In the light, Or even darkness. For Karma will echo back With a knife-like strike To reverse good fortune In your afterlife; In your next life, But not in this life. Still, I think, You're hedging bets, Karma's not Been proven... yet. But just in case You might be right, I'll live life well. Enjoy this life.
