The night contains but two elements
And the heart is consumed therein
Sometimes it feels as if the whole thing really is vapor
Striving after wind
And it isn’t a test
But it feels like a test so much of the time
The process is the purpose
But the purpose is the processor
So what to do with the days
When the days are evil
And what to do with the night
When the night brings no relief
We burn as so many distant embers
Luminous in potentiality or the past
The parched masses groan
For what they cannot identify
To be washed in the water of the word
When the ears that would hear have been closed by design
The path ambles ever onward
Narrowing on the horizon’s edge
