Buddha Will Not Sleep

Nothing belongs to me.
This is my vendetta to kill the pain.
Let it go. Chop the outgrowth.

Reading life's books again.
The Author is the same, but the ink
has changed. I am reverting to red.

Have you ever seen
blood white and the river was red
in the sun, the horizon was burning?

Buddha, symbol of peace and meditation, is unable to sleep because

He has to abandon everything including family to be out of pain as desire and bondage with worldly things is the root cause of pain. Present life is bloody as we made it so with wars and conflicts.
