I walk alone
Purposefully,
I rest afar
From home.
These aching bones,
Debride me of such woes
And deliver restitution
Of with what I was born.
Painless, happiness,
Life without sorrow
Free from fortune.
To live as I was young
But with the benefits of growing old.
Bless me with that gift of insight
And provide me with good experience,
That I might grow & blossom.
Into the butterfly & not the buzzard,
Into the dove & not the eagle.
From the deserts & the mountains,
From mediterranean to peninsula.
Let me walk away
From the affairs of the needy,
Who have their fill
And are even fat because of it.
Let me walk away
From the affairs of the greedy,
Who can't stomach more
But make room by vomiting.
Let me walk away
From the affairs of the seedy,
Who have good families
But can't keep to themselves.
Let me walk away
From the affairs of the piety,
Who possess nice quarter
But must room in others'.
Let me walk away
From the affairs of the ******,
Who know what is wrong
But still freely engage in it.
I walk alone
Afar from home,
I rest purposefully.
Painless, happiness,
Life without sorrow
Free from fortune.
For the sake of wisdom, virtuously.
For the sake of virtue, wisdomously.
Modest & humble.
