How Important Is Life?


Life is a knife, Dull or sharp, Worthless or Famous by Its purpose; its job Thrown away as trash, It has no meaning, Dull And languid; people see its irrelevance. It's handle is its control, Teachers and Parents and Bosses; They are the hand of life; Controlling individual's emotions. Framed in a display, it is judged. How important is it? How important is life? Sharp with experience, It has a meaning, relevant; Sharpened by the rocks, It is useless without the stone As life is useless without mortals.
