It seldom takes a cat’s sleep
But ever remains swift as a mouse
Its only favorite corners deep
Lie in circles, round and about
.
For it jumps and gapes and frolics
Racing far ahead of hands and feet
By the time these puff to catch up
It perches on a newer nesting ground
.
Yet without a solemn rest
It ponders over agenda galore
On life & love, on dead & un-dead
On career & name, on desires aflame
.
There isn’t much one can do
To tame this incessant raging being
Breathe, meditate, ruminate as you may
It will pursue what it wishes to like
.
Wherein lies the solution, my friend?
Accept and embrace changes as they come
It is this MIND after all that leads us to victory
Trust it much, and let it flourish as it leaps abound
