The manas
9. THE MANAS
The lotus an' the lake;
The sea an' the wave;
The stream an' flow;
Are alike!
Woven smooth,
Non-dual feel,
The sunlight is
VIBGYOR!
The notion swirls to the feel;
The feel to be the wheel;
Wheeling to the ambition;
An' blossoming to the Design!
Thus the form, the name;
The sphere, the realm;
The transient;
The whisper;
You inspire!
The Note, the mesh;
Collage, unclear;
The flow perpetual;
Non-stop; Flair!
The flash at times;
Sparkle; blink;
Flare an' wink!
Twinkling the Star;
The Torrent the quanta;
Stream, the data;
Never at par!
The Matter at times;
The Power as well;
The Potential, the kinetic;
The Well, the Full;
The Eternal the Nil!
The speed that makes
The Time static;
The day to the night;
The dawn to the dusk;
An' vice versa!
The guess, the desire,
The imagination;
The apprehension; the ire;
The devotion!
The light, the sound,
The smell, the taste,
The touch an' round;
The ring, the wing;
The sanctum, of Fate!
