The calling is/
sacred/
consecrated/
it whispers/
internally/
relentlessly/
as it did/
in the womb/
where He formed you/
before the womb/
where He foreknew you/
it is/
attached to the sinews of your flesh/
inextricably/
commingled with the vapors of your soul/
indistinguishably/
and like a fire/
searing/
consuming/
enlightening/
it burdens your heart/
her summons is irresistible/
as it was predestined to be/
from the expanse of eternity/
from whence He called you/
to be/
