The Brain Poem by Somanathan Iyer

bestowing brain to every one, God
was not impartial in awarding the wisdom
intelligent He is, He never let it go as such
He wrapped it with invisible coil of illusion
He made it to oscillate between skull and knee
when wisdom moves with mind
the holders are intelligent and extraordinary
if the wisdom slides down yet nears the heart
the holders are humble loyal and compassionate
when the wisdom slips down further to the knee
the holders become powerful and politicians
yet exceptions He made through enlightenment
at every stage it applies to transform lives of everyone
