"God" is
The force of truth
The thrust of power
That moves
And has its being
Particularly
And
Generally
In the world
Of every entity -
Up the strand
Of hierarchy of circumstance
Not by will
Or declamation
But by the obligation
Of eventual order
Out of the chaos
Of free will.
Cum se cum sa
On a leash,
A rope with
Determined slack.
And where is faith?
In the wisdom
Of the tautness
That governs
Its fibers
Drawn through exigency
And ignorance
Pull through all
To correct the course
Toward order
And toward obvious
Though late,
Because earned
Wisdom.
Tis known,
Seen
Felt
Identified
Only in retrospect
And then -
That is enough
Reason to die -
Full accomplishment,
Enough for one
Lifetime -
Before the slack
Sets in
Again
Form like
Smoke
Forever in drift
Change and
Reformation
Evolves
Forever.
Order once
In a lifetime
Within self
Is adequate.
For after that -
The gleam
Of peace.
