There erupts a quarrel between the five senses,
Who among them has the most significance,
Is it the eye who is the perceiver?
Is it the ear who is the observer?
Is it the nose who is the moisturizer?
Is it the skin who is the sensor?
Or is it the tongue who is the taster?
The Eyes says it's him who is the mightiest!
He sees the beauty, perceives the stars; the shiniest!
Sees the flowers, trees, bugs; even the tiniest,
However, he lies, he says he sees the inner beauty,
But we know, he's after the external; he's guilty!
He can't see purity- limited is his duty.
The ear goes next, she is the master of interpretation,
She gives us pleasure, the sound of nature and it's creation,
The calm sound of streams and birds without filtration,
However, she is not perfect, she prefers to hear gossips,
She is the reasons for dispute and strains in friendships,
She is evil and intrigued to break relationships.
It is the nose's turn, he gives us sensory pleasure,
He identifies odor- sweet, bitter, lovely-All flavors,
From flowers to soaps, ranging to natural odor,
However, he fails to smell the foul in the air,
Gives us dissatisfaction, sensetive to anything near,
It gives up instantly, as soon there is something it can't bare.
Skin's turn is up next, she comes in all colors,
Unique and special in it's own tone, like flowers,
She senses all natural gifts, she senses nature's showers,
However, she is unruly, she is a distinctive status,
Only favoring some, it becomes an inferiority apparatus,
Between sensory love and physical lust, towards the latter it is gratus.
Finally, it's the tongue's turn, he presides over taste,
Gifts of God- fruits, edibles, he engulfs without haste,
Anything that gives him joy, he never throws it to waste,
However, he is highly defective, he likes drugs,
The taste of it, puts his adrenaline high- sugar rush!
Verbal abuse is his thing, after this don't expect for hugs.
Hence, we conclude.... All the senses have their pros and cons,
The eye with blindness for internal beauty,
The ear with deafness to morals,
The nose with blockage to nature,
The skin with insensibility to hugs and love,
The tongue with nullness to moral taste....
