Spiritual Clarity

Before each new glory
is a mountain to summit;

a sea to transverse – 

a valley floor needing
lifting...thus expanding
our horizons, revealing
greater arcs of Light: 

When at our best, we are
priests; warring against
dark, willing from the formless
spiritual clarity – when at our
worst, we are the back-and-forth 
egg vs chicken – his crossing of
the road...our retracing footsteps,
forever unresolved 
without a God.

This work was getting chilly, and lonely: you made my day my friend. Blessings!
