Being and Essence
There is a loss of a sense of being that destroys a man
A floating in existence that is below life
Lifelessness like an inflated balloon thrown from the sky
To float ceaselessly in life’s ocean
To ponder is a mystery
To find is greater magic
Sluggishness of the heart and inability of the mind
Being to these the cause
There is a loss of a sense of ‘?ss? qua ?ss?’
When touch is lost with the ?ss?, the Unmoved mover
I look for my God
But my heart can’t cry out neither can my mind perceive
But I call in hope
And wait for answer
