Believing

BELIEVING When I believe in Darwin I am newborn in the planet I am a soup of molecules at random dancing, crazy, unconscious atoms that shaped the first all without a useless creator All was self generated before the Big Bang Including nothingness Including the everlasting all When I believe in divinity I am eternal in eternity I was never created I belong to luminescence amorous sage unknowable I am timeless tenderly pierced by living arrows when horrified by materialism so that I may be eternal in eternity descend in the perfumed fainting of a flower and feel its shock when cut be heated in the warm vibration of rocks that call me by my name to jump with the squirrel and perceive its goal as unattainable wizard and fly in the infra-worlds that the divine contrasts and pardon and repose peacefully

Excellent poem. "When I believe in divinity I am eternal in eternity" says it all.
