Being Human

BEING HUMAN Benevolent but bedeviled by his demons Eternally yearning for salvation yet Intrinsically entangled in a web of self-delusion Neither able to adopt the earth nor earn the heaven Garnering good deeds and scattering to the winds; Human with beastly instincts; godly with an evil streak Universally perceptive but is narcissist in nature, Man is made in the image of God, resident of the paradise Above all creatures, meant to walk upright Neither to be fooled nor foiled yet tethered to moh-maya*.
