Don’t re-invent the wheel

The basics of living a healthy life
Has been written
The basics of a peaceful life
Has already been prescribed

It’s almost as if
We challenge the texts by
Complicating the situation
And ask for complex answers

But the answers are still
Basic and minimal
It’s up to us to delayer the complexity
And apply the same old prescriptions

No new pearls of wisdom
To be found
No new preaching
Really needed

It’s almost criminal now
To add to the oversaturated
Set of texts
With our versions and interpretations

Information detox
Is the need of the hour
Application of existing knowledge
Is the need of the hour

We just dive inwards
And lo! And behold
The magical wand
Is right there – within
