Oh for the inner eye
To see my tummy as it churns
all that I eat, drink and burn
what creates a sludge
what gets flushed
if I had the inner eye
I’d watch what I take in
what I eat and when I eat
oh for that inner eye
If I trust the doc I’ll know
what’s going on even though
it is from the unseen
Somewhere I haven’t been
I’ll trust and I’ll abide
what to take what to avoid
why then the Creator, I don’t hear
of the unseen don’t take care
my inside is as hidden
as the ghaib in the sky
if the insides function
though I cannot see
why is it so hard to believe
of what’s beyond death
the writing is on the wall
see the earth thru spring and fall
I can’t see – why oh why
oh for the inner eye
my heart does sigh
Baseera for the unseen
