The Essence Of Things Poem by Freeyad Ibrahim

by Freeyad Ibrahim

Do not forbid or prevent a creation
and create something alike in imitation
Get not angry or irritated when you speak
Because you say something wrong
After you lose track of information
Do not speak until the anger subsides
You don't see the truth in agitation
You can't see your face in boiling water
but mutilated, distorted, ugly transformation
Do not envy, for the harm of envy will befall you
The envied person may be afflicted with aggravation
Don't say this food is good and delicious
For most bad food is delicious with attractive decoration
The hypocritical person radiates in appearance
while he is ugly underneath his glamorous radiation
Don't t alienate, reprimand and blame the children
because of the meanness of their parents
Most bright roses grow within rotten plantation
