Doing the Best I Can

Outlandish,
The notions of mortal man,
Who does what he wants,
And the best that he can,
At any given time.
 
He is not given to anything else,
Unless he would contemplate
The Inner Self,
And the virtual reality
Element of the sublime.
 
This world is a stage?
Can you re-write your part?
Can you locate
The field of dreams in your heart?
Can you see the scope of the plan?
 
I have nothing to lose or to gain.
I am free from pleasure as well as pain,
Content, whether I am abased,
Or whether I abound,
 
Free from competition,
Free from hate,
Free to love,
And to cooperate,
For I’m doing the best that I can.
