One Who Loses

The one who loses
Is not the one aware
Of a loss or losses lost!
The one who loses
Is the one aware
Of a win that must be won!
This one is not aware of disgrace that comes!
The one who has lost...
Has paid the cost and gains!
And remains unchallenged.

If a civil word or two will render a man happy, he must be a wretch, indeed who will not give them to him. Such a disposition is like lighting another man's candle by one's own, which loses none of its brilliancy by what the other gains.

Meaningless

Test of strengths
meaningless.
where is the waves.

Rules, regulations
ritualistic liturgy
rosary are there
in their places.

Gains and loses
meangingless.

I am on my own ways
and you are yours.
