A Poetic Dialogue between an Egoistic and a Pure Mind


I am a rational man; I know all.
I know the gravitational law. “Not the little why.”
I know the energy law. “Not the tiny why.”
I work with the body. “And forget the hidden heart.”
I know all. “But a subtle why.”

“One day the distant ‘Cipher’ will devour all,
Yet you dare not.”

The ‘cipher’ is far n small, I can ignore.
I know all, I can sermon all.
I am the king, I live like a king.

“Only till the ‘child’ is awake again.”  
“Only if Nature has done all.”  

Notes:
‘Cipher’ is ‘Death’ that takes away all that we have earned and accumulated throughout our life.

‘child’ is the feeble pure reasoning mind that is hushed by the dominant egoist mind which is a slave to fears, needs, desires, pleasures, preferences, and ideals. The child grows with time. 

Text in double quotes is the voice of the frail but pure reasoning mind.
