DIET

Mind asks me Ma..

Whether i am

dieting?

mind stirs awake..

n laments

oh no…why did i

say that…

did i say

you..dear mind..?

but know..

all mind is you

now rest in peace

dear one

it relaxes..

i turn to ask..

Ma smiles

n says

they patronize

slimming clinics

right?

…oh yes Ma

there is not

enough

for basic need

to merely keep

for this life..

not forever

body n soul

together

it may be

their karma

but after all

they are us Ma..

these…

are a slap

on their faces

allow mind..

Just enough

to sustain it

please….Ma…

…please

and please

never allow it

to question it

…Please….

Ma..unless

You think fit
