Power in Purity (Poem) -
I loved life but I feared impurity
And impurity was interwoven in life
Like pebbles in a clean rock
And so I feared life and loved purity
I separated the two and then life became pure
And rendered lovable
When in youth
Such a thing can be taken as backwardness
But when age comes
Such a thing is exposed as
The strength around which people gather
I identified by the things I was not
Status was increased by experience
Power was gained by having done
Height was reached by having said it
My resistance caused my rockiness
And I became like a rock
Trying to mold myself after my Rock
Who is pure and without pebbles
