Karma is also a lie
Presumptuous to assume
That action is needed
To set the world right
Another devious ego-game
Another self-inflicted
Twist of the knife
Another subtle but sure
Hiding place of the mind
And I wake up to look out
From the window of my miniscule mind
A portion of the morning sky
This is the only truth
The only thing to be done
Look without words or imagination
At the fiery morning sun
Castles in the air
Magnificent and beautiful
In which we frolic
You and I
Wake up to see
It was all a dream
You were not there
Nor was I
Just figments of imagination
Of the devious mind
So when they are razed
Why do I feel homeless
Why do I cry
Self pity and blame
Hurt and claim
Movements of the vital
That take us for another ride
Down the same rabbit-hole
Of make-believe and lies
Let’s wake up together
Side by side
On this hard earth bed
And see each other anew
Nay, for the first time
