Far Place

Time is a tunnel of fears,
Funneling years
Down a spiral of darkening dread
Twisting ahead.

Somewhere the passage ends,
After it bends
Millions of labyrinthine turns:
Somewhere Man learns.

Somewhere and someplace we find
We’ve been but blind
Burrowing brutes in the devil’s night,
Shunning Christ’s light.
