THE WOLF
K. M. Kale
We strive
night and day
To keep the
wolf away
But the real
wolf lies within
In the form of
passion and sin.
The one only
kills the body
The other
corrupts the soul
Hindering one
from reaching
The inbuilt
divine goal.
We ought to
kill the inner wolf
With the sword
of simplicity
Wise
temperance and patience
To usher in an
era of tranquility.
Then heavens
will be opened to us
In ascending
tier upon tier
Where peace
will reign supreme
Sans violence,
sans fear.
Then the spectra
of war
Will not haunt
humanity
And there will be no aberration
From the path of prosperity.
