Choices
Colors can make us blind!
Music can make us deaf!
Flavors can destroy our taste!
Possessions can close our options!
Racing can drive us mad
And its rewards obstruct our peace!
Thus, the wise
Fill the inner gut
Rather than the eyes,
Always sacrificing the superficial
For the essential
Translator; Ralph Alan Dale
Verse 12
Another Version from Wayne Dyer
Living the Wisdom of the Tao..
The five colors blind the eye.
The five tones deafen the ear.
The five flavors dull the taste.
The chase and the hunt craze people’s minds.
Wasting energy to obtain rare objects
Only impedes ones growth.
The master observes the world
But trusts his inner vision.
He allows things to come and go.
He prefers what is within to what is without.
