Fire & Equanimity

Through Earth, fire, water and winds I ride,

Determined, still not amused

An easy path for the blind to go

A maze for whom not born reduced

Through tornadoes, storms, and typhoons I slide

Still I'm standing tall

Through pest and plague and hunger I go

No venom in my veins, but the blood of my heart and soul

Bless the imbeciles, the ignorant fools

They think they're burnt yet there was no flame

The modest will for themselves succeed

But my desire can no man tame

Independent of time and possession

We will unite by the fall of the fence

For my content, and satisfaction

Is conspicuously its absence

I see reflections of my suffocating destiny

But I oblate upon thy throne and altar still

For I'd rather die not getting there

Then live and know I never will

The grass is never greener on the other side

Sand and sand is all I see

Give me water for my thirst and this

Pyramid, shall be built by only me

Oh, guide me towards thy presence

The bell must ring like it rang

For I possess the rope of strength

In which my doubt will always hang
