Paradox of the Soul?

Paradox of the Soul?

Look. Don't touch, lest temptation's fire ignite,
A gaze that lingers, yet refrains from the bite.

Breathe deep, but shun the nose's common way,
Through soul's quiet chambers, let essence hold sway.

Less is more, till scarcity demands the trade,
Where abundance yields to thrift's sharpened blade.

See with the heart, for eyes weave veils of deceit,
In empathy's light, truth's pure form you'll meet.

Talk is cheap, yet words forge empires or graves,
Wield them wisely, as a sage or as slaves.

Play the game with cunning, or perish in lore,
For life's arena spares none who ignore.

GLHF ;)

good luck, have fun in this grand, fleeting play,
Where wisdom's paradoxes light the winding way.
