ENNUI

SONNETS OF EXPERIENCE

ENNUI

Bored ego weaves willful wiles for willing hands,

Day dreaming mind wandering in fantasy lands.

Energy's sapped and a wicked waste of time,

Better to dwell in the blissful state sublime,

Of Surrender to the Sat-Guru in the heart,

Or making Self Enquiry, the great infallible art

To reach Self Realisation before we depart

The sad dream of playing an ignorant part,

In what amounts to morbid and mundane pain.

So we determine never ever ever again,

To waste valid hours in foolish idle pursuits

Which often end up in sour and bitter fruits.

The moral of this sonnet is abundantly clear,

Sadhana's freedom's path and the death of fear.
