In the Proximity of Seers

Now the heart is full, it asks no more,

Returning to a loved familiar place

No longer needs to choose either, or

As all is now contained in one embrace.

The body weakened by the many blows

Life offers to the spirit-quest of man,

The breathing difficult, the life-force slows,

But all is well and to the greater plan

One looks and knows the world shall soon transform,

A magnitude beyond the bounds of thought

A cataclysm divine, a cleansing storm

Inevitable, Their sacrifice has wrought.

A life lived full, established in the Way

Accepts the process of advancing years.

One fears not the Shadow who has learned to pray

And lives in the proximity of seers.
