the vain shall grow compassion and concern

outside themselves

when all souls get over themselves


the fool will grow wise and feel pain

all the greater when he stops

making preaching no human has heart


enough to endure


the vain and foolish grow quiet

before the humility of the penitent

those who awoke and continue striving


to control their clumsy hungers

and know better than to think

any transformation of self will be immediate


each awakening renewed from their beds each day...
