a chant at birth
a crescendo
of well being
the heart
mind the soul
till its journey
inundating wave
after wave
as man reaches
the end a cosmic
beginning
nothing left to crave
face to face
for one last time
with vishnu shiva

a very thin
line of demarcation
between the coward
the fearless the brave
the king the jester

for he has but
one master
he himself a slave
dedicated to sukhi hontu..
