Karma and Dharma
The churning wheels of Karma
Surely grind and in their wake
Leave traces that instruct
And reveal the path of Dharma
To all those who choose to forsake
The code of righteous conduct.
Those who continue to propagate
Falsehoods and conspire to fake
Truths designed to reconstruct
Facts to assure a profligate
Lifestyle will rue the mistake
As pretensions self-destruct.

Not fond of moralising
especially with a spiritual bent.

Review
Weirdelf, thanks for meeting the review challenge head on and doing it justice. I agree with you that moralising is not everyone's cup of tea and I accept your critique with equanimity as I consider myself spiritually centred.
