i swallow

the taste

is bittersweet

in my mouth

but does the fruit of my labor

truly justify

the flavor?

does the end

truly justify

the means?
.
.
.
.

if Einstein

was

correct

and if Jesus

spoke

the truth

and if the Buddha

was

enlightened
.
.
.
.

then Karma

truly is

good medicine

Nice write to stimuate poets. Karma doesn't come back to you. It is presented to you by yourself.

Karma, as far as im concerned is like pride... You either do do much, or to little, either way, somehow your pride is effected.

thanks for directing me to this one...the ending has me questioning what the beginning is all about - what is it, exactly, that you're swallowing? i suppose i'll have to find that one out on my own.

...the way I took it is that, Karma is like that nasty fucking medicine we have to take when we get sick; just as the medicine is used to help rid of bad things, Karma helps do the same, mainly by teaching us how things we do come back to us...

heh...but you can't entitle a piece "i swallow" and expect my head to get far enough out of the gutter to realize that it's about "medicine"...lol. cheers.
