Ego Shorn Here Now Reborn
What a zenith of stateliness is ego mine!
Illuminating my worth, strength and charm divine;
Positioned politely it does marvels many,
When sharpened like knife or sword, harms it brings plenty...!
Enriching the attributes of my inner mind,
Keeping me socially accepted and refined;
If clipped and trimmed and efficaciously maintained,
The purpose of my life, here on earth, is attained...!
Ego left on non-channelized, is a drunk ape,
Moving mind to motifs adverse, it does escape;
Ego shorn shines like summer sun dazzling with light,
The earth turns heaven for me; I act with foresight...!
If ego is pure, I am born in life and truth,
New baptism of heavenly waters does me sooth;
Life flows flawlessly fluent like crystal-clear streams,
Guilelessness, like constellation, within me gleams...!
