Karmic Tango -5

I tread the thin line 
that holds silence on one side
and the storms on the other.


I thrive in the breath
of a fleeting minute
that slips off 
from a patient pocket.

I become the being 
inside each thought 
and thought inside the eyes
that face the mirror.

I crawl like a karmic bug
that makes the pain play
the most melodious song 
ever composed by destiny.

I stand firm 
inside each shifting mirage
that holds life on the edge
in a cut throat game.

Wonderfully written.

Gita Ashok
"I crawl like a karmic bug/ that makes the pain play/ the most melodious song / ever composed by destiny." The wisdom offered in these lines by an enlightened poet friend on PF reminds me of the teachings of Buddha - the Enlightened One.
