RECOIL

 

RECOIL

 

Enthralls melodious tunes attract,

Amazed at how illusive world impact,

Loneliness, dark nights, vivid pictures,

Back of mind, imagine scene, allure, (1)

 

Crescendos overwhelm sound stay,

Heart and soul witness life's dismay,

Play of mind myriad hallucinations,

Survival instinct discovered notion, (2)

 

Encounters fear shadows hunting,

Met human anger despises stinking,

Rivalry and jealousy lead to fights, exist,

Loneliness, dark night, fearful yet resist, (3)

 

Let the nightingale sing pervading,

Recoil fearful heart morn invading,

Rises sun eastern horizons orange,

Nightmarish existence owes amaze, (4)

 

Recoil anguish, sadness, rebounds,

Unholy thought wiped out sounds,

The chimes on the temple declare,

Life mixtures of pain, yet admire, (5)

 

Mysterious mind flow of thoughts,

Creepers, invisible, coiled distrusts,

Evil ideas proclaim, capture the soul,

Virtue and vice east and west goal, (6)

 

Sun and moon visit less meet sad,

Creeper, secretive aspirations, mad,

Loot peace, happiness, pleasure, say,

Physical body sensual touches lay, (7)

 

Ruins self-control, discipline in life,

Detachment recoil spirit lust thief,

The splendor spirit achieves equanimity,

Balances error recoil, spontaneity, (viii)

 

Observed in life, such persons win,

How to recoil from negative, define,

Prejudices erased practice reason,

Touch and sense recoils or prison, (9)

 

Remarkable phenomenon survive,

Recoil animal lives plant to thrive,

The great art of self-control, practice,

Capitulated heart recoils in piece, (10)

 

Recoil thread on spindle to release,

The motion spindle balances ease,

Learn incidents, shatter, encounter,

The spindle rotates stable and secure. (11)
