219. TALK ABOUT YOURSELF

Why don’t you talk
About yourself, Mr.
Ghose?

“Sir God, there is no difference
      Between
My spiritual children and my own life.”

Then Mr.
Ghose, say something
      Nice about them.

“Sir God, my children
In the hoary past
Dared to love You.
And now they dare think of You.
In the near or distant future
   They will dare
   To live without You.”

Mr.
Ghose, your shameless prophecy
Equals your futile realisation.
