The joys of palate and fine apparel
bring man no lasting peace.
They who give up false hopes and don't
put trust in the things of the world,
Ascend, unafraid of Death's terrors
by scriptures told;
For having lived contented lives,
they are not debtors of Desire
Indeed they are not debtors of Desires, we want more and to achieve that we strive hard and uses wrong ways.
good poem of prophetic words, hands up those of us who are content?
