Thought
Friend sat breathless, pale
To relate his woeful tale
“Pounced upon was I on road
Vicious blows on me bestowed
Darkly 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 heavenly rewards delight
Assaulted souls on stormy seas
Forget cravings are the enemies
Raise yourself up and steer aright
Bring attention friend to fight
Armed with acquired abilities
Conquer all these hostilities
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.
