ASPIRATIONS (Nov.25 Theme: Success)

If the measure of success is money and reputation,

If it is gauged by adding up to the ego by computation,

Then success or the sense of fulfillment forever will elude

Man, who has materialism in his life to sailing him through and to conclude-

Double use of cee and es, calls for more and more emphasis,

The word arrives in life when the years gather in synthesis.

A child does not know what the word means to humans,

In our mature age, we use its peripherals to kill demons.

Success has various manifestations because it’s a thing abstract –

We discover success when we concentrate and separate things that distract us.

As they say, nothing else succeeds like success,

All aspire, but few achieve as great heights as Anthony Burgess.

Success can be material; success can be immaterial;

But it’s beyond doubt that it’s dreamt by species terrestrial!
