Slave To News

I am no longer in the meditation cubicle It is raining in the lame field of the heart The fugitive sunshine of the dry summer is smiling News of death in the infatuated smells of fruit Not a sick body, however This mind has now become terribly frightened As a slave to the earthly miraculous news! 24.06.2020 Chattogram

Everyone today is becoming too enslaved to the news. But if it's miraculous news, it sounds like GOOD news!

I find that I'm a bit of a slave to the news myself, though I limit myself to an hour of radio a day and one newspaper a week. Yet I still devour whatever news I get like a hungry lion!... Your point is well-made, Mahtab. Thanks, Gershon
