Sonnet To Mind And Man


Intentionally hunt for fire's content 
Out of deliberate brain's obscurity 
The mind to rely cannot find portent 
All is ghostly absent of purity

Appearance left blank, thoughts untraceable
They are words that do not exist at all
Yet passions though, are not erasable
Ordering thinking to answer its own call 

Empty visible crafts, untouchable
Thinking you are doing the right thinking
Should we say words are duly touchable
Creating brave meaning and order linking 

Mind and man in their own clueless substance
How hope and dream cling to varying essence!
