The Undiscovered Countries of the Soul.


God the Silent chambered deep within

Speaks to the inward heart abjures the ear

That catches only momentary din,

Or eyes purblind to heaven's atmosphere.


Fixed in earthly grooves and codified

Our bodies move in old familiar ways,

Mechanical reaction habit-tied

No greater law, no higher force obeys.


Yet shall we break the barriers we have built

To screen us from the view of the Unknown,

Across the crowded pathways of our lives

She comes to us to build the living throne


And seat the Godhead in this mortal space,

Reveal the secrets of the occult scroll

Of sacrifice that conscious we may face

The undiscovered countries of the soul.
