Philosophical

why does he tell you 
of the gardens he planted 
of the orchards and high places? 
 
he is too old to gloat about it 
and he has grown bored with doing it 
having done it before the world 
 
he is not bragging 
he is telling you about these things 
in order for you to see that you own them 
 
once you understand his meaning 
you see that what he is trying to tell you is 
that you might totally assume it's yours 
 
there really is no difference 
investigating both wisdom and madness 
happiness and sadness 
 
but for the lesson learned mean time 
you love your heart out and report back to master 
he looks into the corner of his eye and says: 
 "an enemy did this"
