Ignorance

Ignorance-pleasure-life,
You know how to tempt me
And
I know how to devour you.
Now I give you
My absolutely last warning:
If you once more
Even dream of tempting me,
I shall devour you completely
Sooner than at once.
Sri Chinmoy, Light-Delight-Journeys, Bhakti Press, Ottawa, Canada, 1974
