Notes About The Poem

Sage Speak

Prophets who walked on earth,
each affirmed the same truth,
that God in-dwells within
cave of our glowing heart,
felt if we’re free from sin.

Prophets who walked on earth,
pointed out to conscience,
being the voice of God
steering us towards light,
with which each child is awed.

Prophets who walked on earth,
sought not to form a cult
but their words distorted,
sadly cause prejudice 
by beliefs contorted.

Prophets who walked on earth,
said love alone’s real,
all else a thought construct
egged on by our ego,
which must now self-destruct.
