INTRODUCTION

1. First Impression
- Simplicity
- Concise
- Lyrical

BODY

Subjectively, the first line refers to the act of "assumption."
The second line represents the "failure" to understand the "truth" about someone.
The last line is the perfected punchline; the grand finale of "self actualization."

FAVORITE QUOTE

"Fails to listen to its own song."

Honestly, this is my favorite line of the whole poem because it gives it the "lyrical" feel to the poem. It allows the reader to:

1. Connect
2. Appreciate
3. Love

CONCLUSION

Primarily, the "Mind" is a complex organism. However, "human beings" will forever remain "animals" of nature.

FINAL THOUGHTS

You are a wonderful teacher.
You are a beautiful poet.
You are Zainul.

The "Mind" is like a parable for me from the literal and metaphorical standpoint.
Happy writing!

There is something to be said about a writer who can manage to say so much with so few words... You truly have a gift... In three lines you were able to pose more questions in the reader's mind than most writers could ever hope to achieve... This piece quickly became one of my favourites :)

Thanks for the great review.
This is a very true poem, it is short and to the point and really leaves you thinking about what it says once you're finished reading it.

So true. So very true. We're busy thinking about what people think rather than giving our own thoughts a thought. Perfect.

This poem has attracted many interesting reviews. Amazing how you have managed to trigger/elicit/evoke/spur so many currents/streams of thought!

Must be the still, small voice in the whirlwind or, more aptly, the pink lotus atop a still himalayan lake?
