The Man Who Never Knew
- a Poem
- by Samdev
Let me tell you a story,
Of a man, one man,
A man who never knew
About the picture he drew
Looking at other pictures
The flaw, the perfect flaw
Realizing a life full of punctures
Knowing life is imperfect
A dynasty, a kingdom, an empire yet to fall
About a bank, insecurities to withdraw
And so, he wasted all of his time
Looking at other pictures
And his blank canvas
Not knowing what to draw.
