'Forget The Stars, Leave The Gutter'

Do not deign to achieve.
Do not strive to suffer.
Aspiration is naive.
Forget the stars, leave the gutter.

Hope's a hopeless hobby.
Nihilistic mother
nurtured steely melancholy.
Forget the stars, leave the gutter.

Wisdom dashes all wishes;
in egodeath, discover
how free a nebbish is.
Forget the stars, leave the gutter.
  
Stardust smarts our fetish,
yet to Indian givers stellar,
we are not indebted.
Forget the stars, leave the gutter.

Lotus lights stun slums.
Orion universe of hunters.
The stars eat their young.
Forget the stars, leave the gutter.

Do not deign to achieve.
Do not strive to suffer.
Aspiration is naive.
Forget the stars, leave the gutter.
