Not As It Seems
NOT AS IT SEEMS
Human nature is not what it seems
Real life is different to dreams
Ideal people do not exist
Temptation is too hard to resist.
Human weaknesses, inadequacies
- And all of my frailities -
Are listed without end
In Bible and Koran,
In Bhagavad Gita and Analects -
I am imperfect.
Weakness is not just in man or woman
My main frailty is that I am human.
