The Voice of God

Walk on O soul of man the distant stars

Approaching roadways paved alone for thee,

The sun a candle in thy vastness’ dreams,

Walk on undaunted towards divinity.

From ourselves we cannot run nor hide.

Unsatisfied with mental wanderings

We must break the bounds of mortal thought,

And preoccupation with the noise of things,

Ascending through the planes of consciousness

Upend our lives, old certainties discard,

Leap across the chasm of our pain

That we may live to hear the voice of God.
