The Buddha was lucky....

The Buddha said:
Shun ambitions.
School teachers fed:
Chase them!!
Buddha was lucky.
The people he left,
chose to free him,
let him;
and left him.
My world's more sticky.
Moorings to heft,
Karmas at helm;
Fortunes flit 
in fancies; at whim...
Tears and smiles
strange bed-fellows.
The teachers were right,
The Buddha was wrong. 
Ambitions shunned 
with nowhere to go;
make dreams throb
in graves of zombies...
Lives must be endured, 
living amidst lives.
Not exiled in jungles.
But the Buddha was lucky.
He could afford the jungles.
