19. SELF-PROCLAMATIONS

My soul says:
“I am that birthless
  and deathless thing.”

My heart says:
“I am that eternally aspiring thing.”

My mind says:
“I am that forever dissatisfied thing.”

My vital says:
“I am that endlessly desiring thing.”

My body says:
“I am that sleeping, snoring
  and dreaming thing.”
