Know Like Flowing Water
The intake of knowledge is like flowing water,
Rivers unwind completely with their obedience
As the oceans become their being inwardly.
The seas of the wise men are like words of the fingers,
The eternal knower is against my learned soul,
Internal threats are a judge and jury, the ultimate.
One must pray and understand fully a verse
In the evening, and then mornings alleviate
The wrongs done by those who claim to know
What devastations are not.
Naveed Akram
