In the world, I see
sapphires, rubies, emeralds,
and diamonds untame
nought but these three jewels,
and the invincible mind
I must overcome
trouble to subdue,
this adversary, I find
worthy to vanquish
how this obstacle
becomes my prime opponent
of all the wild game
evinced in spirit
I conquer mind within mind
without argument
welcome evidence
proves my own defeat of self
thus words leave me dumb
opponents as fire,
earth, air, and water leave me
to make my third wish
reflection informs
light within an illusion
language is best mute
lion licks his wounds,
his tongue, coarse as sandpaper,
in the sun, lies spent
diminished fifths play
intervals as aural chimes,
this I must perfect
I hear no difference
in this and augmented fourths,
analyze the score
see not with the eyes,
perceive not with the senses,
what might I detect
evidence unveiled
beyond all these emotions
to death, these horns gore
egos enslaved, bulls
care nothing for the three jewels,
but act as the brute
