Listen to poem:
A State of Separation
A State Of Separation
He looks and sees yon desk
there'd be, a missing book,
so he searched his tattered mind.
Yet, be surprised wherein, he'd
find, a mind of clear consciousness--
with open eyes, again surprised...
Yon shelf there'd be his book,
but wore a troubled look, for whence
he knew not how'd it came to be.
Afraid, yet ventured 'tis curiosity,
but, for what he feared has now
returned, a tattered mind once again.
With open eyes, he looks around, yon
desk and shelf, and oddly gazed a floor,
as a book, sits unfound once more.
