A Trinity

the brain, mind and me
it has to be a trinity
three entities sailing
the cosmos trying
to outdo each other

the brain is generous
letting the mind wander
in and out while me - i -
try to work out the best deal
in the crowdy sojourn

the brain tinkles with
god's act of
predestination
sealed in tightly, foolproof
you think you are in control
yet in the end you have to
concur you are way out of hand -
one mystic takes you
by the head, one other
slips in and out

the brain keeps itself known
sometimes in touch
sometimes out,
sometimes even trying
to let you know
the pool of secrets
it holds over you

all nervous you could only wish
you are out of this bewildering
soul draining situation
