‘More’ is not Life-Friendly

Here’s Why?

I wish I could ask for more,

but I know more is a waste.

More is a thing that comes in my way,

To keep me abstrusively away.

A loop so complex, yet at the same time baseless.

More is never peace and love.

It is a mere play, a mere edge to abrade my steps.

I sure know a thing eternal,

I have seen it twice or more.

And I’d sing of the tunes fresh from God’s Cello

It is but a thing of love I long for,

Not acquired and could not be more.

At times I do long for a bent or a crack to make visible.

But for the world, I can’t utter, I can’t speak of the touch.

It is an open secret known to a few illiterate nomads.

One that is bliss, is never lost and can never be more.
