At the Mercy of the Elements

Drowning in a sea of sound Lost in the maze of materialism Buffeted by a blizzard of ballyhoo Straitjacketed by the strictures of science Swamped with the mediocrity of the mass media Bewildered with the morality of money. How does the spirit escape suffocation? Where does it find its anchor? What refuge can give it breathing space? When does it have time to see the truth? Why have we lost our way? Who can show us the light? Look deep into your heart In a time of silence And listen to your inner voice. You will surely find the answer there, If you are open to the truth.
