Even if for a lifetime
the fool stays with the wise,
he knows nothing of the Dhamma
as the ladle, the taste of the soup.

That doesn't even ryhme!

When reading the prose of the Sage
The foolish laugh out loud
But the wise
Will understand

When the fish follow the trawler,
The sardines are caught
In the
Net.
The fool tastes
the mackerel
but
the wise
man does
Not.

'I have sons, I have wealth'
the fool torments himself.
When even he himself
doesn't belong to himself,
how then sons?
How wealth?

The
fool.
The
end.

Did them the world of good, one's working in research at a Uni in America, another is an officer in the Army, and another still is doing really quite well in the City.

Thank god it's friday
I have to say
for my head does ache
and my hands still shake
for last night I regret
but I can't forget
how p*ssed I got
missing the chance
to sh&g Sally from Finance
