Togetherness (119)

Togetherness  119


We are together in the self same house, for years
not rolling in the dunlap bed,nor jumping on those
pillows,colorful,cushioned comfort of seeming Paradise,
neither  living a physical life of mundane happiness,
nor loving a physical  life of mundane happiness.


In total pitch dark and long power failure sudden,
our eyes are closed, praying to the God and chanting the divine
the darkness is light enough surrounding,
the knowledge of Vedic discipline is encircling,
unyielding even to the mean desire of punishing,


punishing those pugnacious,petty and puerile
putting into fixture those gritty and vile,
is not in our blood, our mental plane coagulate,
though the salacious determined to operate,
we will not our principles deny and negate.
