We Quench Our Thirst

We quench our thirst but always fail,
since we’re by fears and desires cursed,
the toxins that bring out our worst,
that doth tranquility derail,
till we drink from the holy grail;
soma nectar in our heart pursed,
we quench our thirst. 

Truth of existence, let us nail,
by embracing life unrehearsed,
feeling within bliss bubble burst
and thus living to tell our tale,
we quench our thirst.
