Picture Two

once you follow the right ways
not absconding to the way of flow,
loving bees instead of trees
and craving pains instead of chains
you will own wings from heaven.
do not seek asylum with ash
do not peep into his barrel
kept around scented candles.
do not look into the mirror
and crave another flesh
rather than one before you.
when if you do this
you wouldn’t fly at night,
your feet will always rest on the ground.
you wouldn’t own wings from gods
and seek to cut your flesh to the
devil.
