with no within
and without
bends unto itself
transforms into
a circle

The circle
little space inside
infinite space outside
Our minds, that's how it is
so little inside
and so much more outside

All Wisdom and religions
seek to erase
the boundries of ignorance
Misinterpreted
they just misshapen
a perfect circle

Yes, there's beauty
to behold in shaped
circle of ignorance
It's battered and bleeds
when tampered with
wisdom and reason

Religions and wisdom
with right intentions
stretches the horizon
a circle with centre
without any boundries
finally they enlighten

(If you are one of those saying, "what the heck was that?",
elaboration of this is on my blog, it would be still be deeper than this anyway) [comments] => 4 [counter] => 154 [topic] => 21 [informant] => remote [notes] => Edited for Spelling as Requested by Moderator_15 [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )
