life is deep
life is the oval egg that revolves,
life has its core as an inner yolk,
and if the shell of ignorance is broken
what deeper path will there will be found?
it will be found,the yolk;where true wit lies
life is the unfathomable,botomless sea
where the length of the beneath is twice the earth,
so the path where real wisdom is plunged
is under the ocean of shallow thoughts,
that if the base is found,the truth is found
life is the sequences of onions
where one layer sets place for the other;
and indeed its layer sure is infinite to existence
but man! he eats the shell and is swell,
while sages have eaten the yolk and are sober
