A Wish Fulfilling Gem
(Funeral pyre in Katmandu)
A Wish Fulfilling Gem
The world is a karma burning engine.
We resist it, we curse it, we do our best
To try and make it something different,
But it is what it is,
And this honesty deserves to be respected
Celebrated, embraced and even dove into
As a fish into water.
It is after all our karma that is burning.
What more could we want!?!
And so the world is a wish fulfilling gem
Giving us exactly what we need.
