POETRY – PHILOSOPHICAL:


Cobra

Strike first, the key to street survival.
Deflect the blow and turn the energy back,
Towards the assailant from himself, Chinese philosophy in movement.
A Tai chi master, in continual flow without physical pressure,
In self defense, no aggression or physical application.
Our ancient Hindu master, a symbolic snake shedding skins and lives,
In pursuit of wisdom, awareness and enlightenment.
