The raze of swollen sea to thunderings
Of monstrous clouds to quakes of withdrawing earth...
And pandemics to fatal human failings -
Whose life is it that dreads not face of death ?
But death 'lone shocks the one who celebrates
The gains of body in absolution,
As life to death in matters sole relates;
The more possess'd one is, more trepidation...
And who renounces 'life of joy', collects
Pearls from oceans, stars from heavens and ever
Remains in transcendence - beyond connects
Of fatal forces death does swiftly fire :
Renunciation is the embodiment
Of life - unbeatable, undying, unrent.
