THE IMMENSE KARMA

THE IMMENSE KARMA

The irony of things, the great disappointment

You that are wise- hear the words of this poem, 

which is a parable great

whoever owns an ear must listen to these words

these thoughts are mighty and large, and before my time

let him who is deep and rational overstand them

I tell the truth as an innocent child among children

I declare my own innocence this day- do not be caught

In what are the mysteries of life, who can overstand the

meaning of existence- I tell you my mind in a parable.

There were seven people who could not agree on a thing

The first two did not beleive and did what they pleased

Three more beleived but in partiality on a thought,

being one foot in and other toes out. The next one beleived

in full, did his duty and layed down to rest.

The final one, the seventh one, beleived with all his mind

and heart and soul but did nothing and so gambled

on the thing unprepared.

Here lies the mystery, disaster appeared in the sky to

test the perfection of the seven saying who shall survive 

this test? With both hands he came to the first two and 

found them asleep and lacking, but because they had 

no fear they escaped and were left unharmed.

Following he arrived to the home of the partial three

and found no root so he uplifted them completely

and went his way.. He went to the single and found

him asleep and ready so he passed him on to the next.

Now to the final, the seventh child, woe to him.

He beleived the thing but was over zealous without

proper knowledge of himself- he too was removed

and destroyed.

Here is wisdom. Know thyself. Know what thou knowest

and walk in all humility in every doing under the sun.

The first two were no fools, for as they did, they knew

as they new, they did, in what they pleased.

The other two lacked proper knowledge and

knew not their own ways so the wind of disaster

took them out.

The sixth was complete and after he loved

he also rested and went to bed on the seventh hour, he

had all he desired because he did the work and made

his plans long before disaster arrived. But to the seventh

'the perfect one', he overprepared and was cut down

before his time as faith without works is a dead thing.

Let him who owns an ear to hear, hear! And let wisdom

know the truth for himself because no one can tell this

for no one knew the day nor the hour, not even the seven.
