Here’s a poignant poem about the conflict within, by Dr Ashok, exclusively for Different Truths.
While I walk And while I talk Like a hawk Thoughts stalk. Good or bad Gloomy or glad Often, they cloud My fickle mood. Betwixt the “I-ness” Of wretchedness, And righteousness, I grope in darkness. Yes, thoughts With new plights, Often, they fight For an elusive delight.
