'kasa' - Truth and Wisdom 2

truth Bails, lies Bills the Purest speech from the Heart is a cry Prudent leaving lengthens 'Life is Short' Life has MUSTs to be done. Don't fail to do or else, Life will fail you suddenly sadly nothing is Right everything can be Wrong, whiles nothing is Wrong everything can be Right the noisy bleating goat disturbs the village at the expense of a glad soup pot ready to boil Fear of Death denies know one of a Good night Sleep big EYES aren’t clear sight only Distance can tell how clustered the Stars are not an Eye the Blind see further in the dark than the Sighted the Limbs of a cripple tells nothing of his Height of Insight Power of imagination makes you Stand whiles sound in bed Thinking your Shadow stands by side in the dark, is your mind Want to see your Mind, without the cuts and stitches? Stand in-front of a Mirror, what you see is not Self but Mind ©Kofi Asokwa-Nkansah
