A slave I have become
to this lump of blood and bones,
to this lifeless lump of matter.
Slaving day and night
to the senses and the mind.
Slaving day and night
to my mindless pride.
Slaving day and night
in this endless vicious ride.
Burning with desire,
intoxicated with lust and greed,
blow after blow,
the mind assaults my heart-
‘I want this, I want that, I want it all!’
Alas, a slave I have become!
