Matrika: progression
Malini: destruction
Both ending delusion
Unveiling, a slow tease
Awakening, release
When lower desires cease
So simple is the way
Let not attention sway
In stillness, as we pray

When all roads lead to Rome,
It is hard to get home.
When all roads lead to Rome,
We become accident prone.
When all roads lead to Rome,
Our minds are no longer free to roam.
All Roads lead to Rome
There is a well known saying
That all roads lead to Rome
But I don't take it literally
Because my road leads me home
Driving on the road..
Many winding roads..
Narrow
Bumpy..
Filled with curves.
Turns galore..
Don't know how long ..
Living life on the road..
Life on the run..
Fast paced
Action packed..
Fatique sets in..
By day
By night
Must stay alert..
Looking for a change..
Adventure circulates in my direction..
Interesting people..
Fascinating places..
I keep on moving along my merry way..
A smile on my face
An upbeat attitude..
That is all I need ..
In this moment in time..
Winding road..
Shall it lead me to the unknown..
Mysteries of what lies ahead..
Perhaps all roads lead to Rome..
C-ountless varied means
H-ave been used in life;
R-eaching each goal or dream
I-s going through the strife.
S-ome journeys can face
T-rial by rugged wind;
I-n spite of all troubles,
N-ever let your ardor
E-nd.
G-reat chances shall come,
A-ugust nineteenth Saturday;
Y-ou can grab left and right,
E-ven when the sky is gray.
L-et the straight or zigzag trail
A-llow you to arrive at home;
M-ove in many different ways,
A-ll roads lead to
R-ome.
