Nirvana Poem by Chris Goss

Suffering is how it is, how do I escape it
That frustration can cast its shadow
Cravings can uncloak the human mind
Fantasies flying away in fireworks
Delusions dart out of memory lane
Pain steps out never return again
Unpleasantness unpeels utterly
That dangling pleasure in my mind dies
With enlightenment it is happy in the now
Serenity and Nirvana extinguish the flame
Now enlightenment is with me now
Which is achieved with total contentment humans
The most contorted and riven souls
Should be accepted into this fold
Perhaps they could be the most beautiful
So all can reach enlightenment gold
I want this story to be historically told
Because the scriber does not want to hold
He just want to end his life out of this world
But he just does not how to unfold
Sordid and wretched is his life he wants sold
Definitely will not last to ripen aged old
Has never been brought in from the cold
Feels so wrought I could never be bold
If I were a champion I would not earn gold
I just can't feel anything good to be told
About this life that I just totally and utterly want to unfold
