Deceit

A nice suit with an attractive tie and collar
cannot polish up the inner clothes,
at best cover them up,
to hide behind external labels.

Appearances are deceptive,
no cunning speech will help.

Clean clothes are not able
to conceal the inner dirt,
smell of lies and fakes.

How often do we take words
Of beauty in our mouth
Copy them even from others
But do we live up to them?

We use words like “unconditional love”
For this, our mind needs to be pure
Crystal clear, no dirt, no spot in it
Can we really claim, that our mind is pure?

Frankly, I can’t, for this we have to know
All the tricks of our mind
And it is a trick of our mind
To make us say: that we are pure in our mind

If our mind says: I am a good person
I love unconditionally, I am free from violence
If we claim this from ourselves
We should be alarmed at once

Our mind takes a certain attitude
Plays with us, with our feelings
Even with our reasoning
Pressing the stamp of appearance on us

In the end, we believe it
Do not control it
Stay in a state
Between clouds and light…

Can we really love unconditionally?…
Can our dress really stay clean,
When working in a coal mine?

Is it so?

 

 

We are the good ones
We also say
We are bad
Our theater in front
Of us continues

We do not compare ourselves with others
We love the love
We hate the hate

We tell the truth
We do not seek advantage
We help others first
And then ourselves

Is it so?

Our life is just a big theater…

Fooling ourselves (2)

How can we trust ourselves
If we are not even honest to ourselves

This belief in ourselves
Is broken by the first lie

Then self-cheating starts…
