Journey through the void of space,
Avoid the face of swirling stars.
Celestial orbs enthroned in light
Once far, now here, right where you are.
In-between are worlds apart
Warped and rural, mural skies.
Crystal seas reflect the Glories,
Watchers winged with sapphire eyes.
Dive beneath the solid waves
Crust of earth that is not Earth
Fire rivers flowing where
Humankind does not give birth.
Closer still the atoms spin
Alone? or are they by Themselves?
Existential underpinnings
Underpinned by what? Themselves?
Matter sinks within our hands,
Reality has been replaced.
Starlight liquids squared by pi
Intertwining time and space.
Light is flying faster, faster
Till it seems it’s standing still.
Peace of Deity unveiled
Godspeed blinding you until
Scales are falling from your eyes
Know as you are fully known
Hear His Voice so still, so small
I am I AM. Be still, and know.
