I Love You, Marx


“…to hunt in the morning, fish in the afternoon, rear cattle in the evening, criticise after dinner, just as I have a mind, without ever becoming hunter, fisherman, herdsman or critic.” — Karl Marx

Ah, to read Plato in the morning

As the sun is rising,

To read Ramana Maharshi in the afternoon

And tone down the heat in the coolness of his philosophy,

To read Shakespeare in the evening

And ward off the the chill with the warmth of his poetry,

To meditate in the night

And find the light in the darkness that surrounds me.
