Thought
Friend sat breathless pale
To relate his woeful tale
“Pounced upon was I on road
Vicious blows on me bestowed.
Dark enemies like robber band
Quickly gained the upper hand!”
“For justice sake name these brutes
So I can make them face law suits”
Objects on which senses alight
Some on heavenly gains delight
Assaulted souls on stormy seas
Forget these cravings are enemies
Raise self-up and steer aright
Attention as friend for to fight
Armed strong with learnt abilities
Conquer all these enemies
Prayer
O Lord, when things go well, I neglect Thee and when they go badly, I blame Thee. I am my best friend and my worst enemy; but You are my only constant companion.
