Where Are Those There are those Who through their own power and drive Do choose their destiny and purpose As well as put off all mortal desire. There are those Who strive to achieve such reveries; With concentration so impenitent That they adjourn every earthly longing. There are those Who manage to attain their goals; And in so doing have invited into their life Even more corporeal wants than before. There are those Who act upon this new-found temptation; Having done so, they have lost all– Their purpose and principles destroyed. But! There are those Who do refuse these lustful lures, And do see such a loss beforehand; In turn, they keep their values with their power! ...If only there were those... |

Nice one here virgil. Wonderful thoughts. I liked it.  I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. I'm in love with my shadow I admire it daily |

Great job of telling all of this, the poem is really good! "Disagreements stimulate thought, thought stimulates action, and action stimulates life." --Lakewalker http://www.thehungersite.com |
