The Poet

He peers at mists of human lust, looking

Through some mirror to reflect his purpose

In this wide wide universe.



People say he is a thinking animal, a philosopher-king,

The grown greatness, the soul-searcher, glowing alight

To questioningly, searchingly



Light dark corridors of human folly;



A restless soul, a disharmonised logic like Plato

Peeping into the soul of restless man: the corrupt, the Ruthless, the selfish, but within this darkness he stumples



Into many droplets of reason.
