Poetry
You want something
You're half starved for it
But you're not sure what it is.
You go looking
Throat parched
Knees slack
But it's not there
Always mysteriously out of reach
Like the mirage that draws
The desert victim onward.
Illusions have no mercy
And they have gaping mouths
Hungry for fools to stumble in.
When you get there you'll be nowhere
Swallowed up
In persuit of nothing.
Can't you hear that still, small voice?
No, don't look outward--
It comes from within
(How many do hear it?)
This voice offers
Only reality
The inner certainty of God
For those who thirst
A drink of Eternity.
