Notes About The Poem

Detachment

Delusion caused by needless indulgence,
Entertaining urges of lower mind,
That does stifle our innate innocence
Anchoring attention in egos bind.
Cause and effect of being misaligned
Hidden from us, owing to deep stupor.
Myriad desires, our foolish caper;
Exit simple on choosing detachment,
Naked surrender and devout prayer,
Thirsting and yearning for enlightenment.
