“Dreams
in God”
The day
to day is what humbles you
It tethers
you to earth
Life
is not lived in the action files
There
is no epigram that can cure the human soul
Cliff
notes do not get you off the cliff
You have
to get deep, down and dirty
Down
to the bone and seed
Down
to the weather, the withering, the death
There
is no place to hide the darkness
The light
is in flight
The light
is in flight
It is
not all doom and gloom in the glory
It is
also fire without the brimstone
Falling
without the bone crush
Flying
with the cape, love
It not
all doom and gloom to your story
Attempts
are just the cannon fodder
Victory
is not the crucial, other
There
is nothing in the centre but God
The source
of life
The source
of bright
It is
not all doom and gloom at all
Dreams
are just speaking wishes
Wishing
wells and deep cisterns of our shared fate
The things
that come before the things that come
There
is not a terror in them to fear
It is
not all doom and gloom on earth
Leave
space for that other place
In dreams
you find them, day by day
The imagination
to light a fire against the tide
The inspiration
to look at your own self in the eye
And not
to condemn
Nor judge
To embrace
and to love
And to
fill all things up
With
this great idea
Of the
waking dream
Finally
made real.
