“Can We Do It?”

Can we defy our greed, our conditioning
To make way for clarity and peace;
Can we give space to life
For we owe it a plenty;
Can we lead a living which compares not
To dive deeper in the calm of our minds and a little beyond;
Can we curtail our consumption
To give this planet its due;
Can we, for once, not succumb to our old patterns
To make way for soulful living;
Can we break our shackles and not
Give up to the prison of desires;
Can we admit our shallow ways
To see the deep waters of our being;
Can we rat out of the race
To see the mankind in all its grace;
Can we see how much we really need
Of the material, of the Earth;
Can we find something inside us
Which needs little and fulfills us;
Can we, for our own sake,
Stop functioning for the fake identities;
Lets take our mask off
If we can, found we have true essence of our being!!
