Whirlpool

-

Round and round, in circles I march,

Learn, unlearn, relearn,

Trapped in words, trapped in ideas,

Trapped in this body, trapped in this mind;

Fighting hollow battles, scoring empty points,

Furiously swimming in a whirlpool,

Trapped in my mirage, trapped in my senses,

Trapped in this body, trapped in this mind;

Proselytizing oblivious of my vacuousness,

Teaching to fly when I never had wings myself,

Trapped in my knowledge, trapped in my ignorance,

Trapped in this body, trapped in this mind;

Where is freedom, what is the truth?

What is real, what am I fighting for?

Will you ever reveal thy true face to me…

Will you ever rid me of me…
