Deprived Mind

Parched mind,
Dry mind,
Starved mind,
Hungry mind,
Blank mind,
Sought,
Sought and sought,
Something,
To do,
but could not,
as he had done all,
he could,
there was nothing,
he had not,
when he found,
with a lot of difficulty,
one he had not,
they would not let him,
as it was,
their domain,
mind was deprived,
and so it remained.
