My losses,

My loses,
My loses was with a call,
My losses was with a message,
My loses was with a man,
My loses came from them,
I made my loss that I was losing it,
Grab I to take away,
Losses that are so Dynamic,
My loss,
This is the loss that upon this soul,
My loses that I made it,
Loss it,
Iam losing that I may win,
Losing is the tight game,
Lose that is upon this soul,
Lose that I need to gain in profit,
Losers will fail,
Lose that I may win,
This is the calling of the lose,
That I may benefit,
Let me lose that I may win.

If we win, someone else loses. But if someone else loses, we lose. Which is a point we're not getting. The new spirituality will make this just painfully obvious.

A Woman With Double Loss

During menstruation period
due to hormonal influence,
some women become depressed and different.

Usually she is stingy and thrifty.
She would buy useless things with big money.
It is discovered in a scientific study.

From uterus, she loses blood.
From her purse, she loses buck.
During menstruation, she becomes a crazy shopping nut.

Eric Berne

A loser doesn't know what he'll do if he loses, but talks about what he'll do if he wins, and a winner doesn't talk about what he'll do if he wins, but knows what he'll do if he loses.

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.

My intellectual shortcomings

He loves books
Books that he cannot buy

He gets the intellect
He gets the mind

He gets rich in time
Trusting his instincts

He buys books
That he cannot read anymore

He gets so many minds
He loses his intellect

With all regret to what
Happened, he loses his face

And wants to recover at least his eyes
By writing some of these poems.
