Mahtab Bangalee Poet Free verse

Mind and I

Mind and I
Twins in one body

Does the mind live in me?
or
Do I live in the mind?
complicated to segregate this

The mind is the chief commander of life,
commands me to follow the rules by this

I am subjected,
oppressed and defeated...

Rob Levasseur December 22, 2020 at 8:35 AM A great subject matter for a poem. I would have enjoyed seeing you flesh this concept in more detail. For, indeed, the question of the mind and I is interwoven with the trilogy of self: Heart, Mind, Spirit, and their conflicts within us.

Gershon Wolf December 13, 2020 at 8:47 PM Interesting muse, Mahtab... Hard to know who rules whom! As well, are we 'alive' outside of out of our minds?! -- All great food for thought. Kudos, Gershon
