As You Make the Life Voyage
Ensure your vessel is not leaky
Life is a voyage,
mind is the captain.
the body is vessel.
It does not have to be embellished,
from the outside,
but the vessel must be
steady, and strong.
It should not leak,
or it will capsize.
How pretty exterior it had
does not matter.
I hope you understand,
reduce inflammation,
and care for your vessel.
Ensure, its machinery runs well,
it robust, capable of
making the voyage.
Awareness and discipline
are the tools
to ensure vessel is healthy.
Alas, too many captains
are fixated on
decorating the outside,
neglecting the inside.
What's the excuse?
Everybody doing so,
well then, wait to drown,
just like everybody them.
Be wise, do what is right.
