Lebensraum

To find the place where gods reside; just look Into a candle’s solitary flame And listen for their voice to call your name Within the self, and there you’ll find their nook This place is never found in any book, Or in the words an aging priest may preach, That which is divine is in easy reach Within the self, and there you’ll find a nook The path is scattered with all you mistook The way is cluttered with those tempting things But when the heart finds truth it simply sings Within the self, and there you’ll find a nook To find the place where gods reside; just look Within the self, and there you’ll find their nook
