Investment

Some view life as an eternal compulsion of a journey,
Their perception clouds the experience as being rosy or thorny,
They experience the journey to be both an oasis and a mirage,
The state of mind tests and decides the nerves of the entourage

Some view life as a roaring gun that needs a periodic blaze,
They need no advice as they compulsively exist in a craze,
They enter and exit life as in a creative maze,
The experience enriches them or leaves them in a daze

Some view life as an eternal quest,
Some decide to live it in a jest, others fail to scratch the surface of the crest,
Some focus on developing their nest, others fear the return to the dust,
Self experiences prepares them for the ride into the unknown that is known to test,

Some view life as an eternal investment,
They invest wisely every moment, and remain ever alert and present,
They prefer to be all consistent and do not believe in divestment
They enjoy fulfillment and experience enlightenment

The returns on life have an upside and a downside,
The risks taken in life create an inroad or puts your on the road
The value on life is either self perceived or market determined,
The tricks in the trade are to keep it either clueless, remain leveraged or balanced.
