Still, Small Voice of Reason
Deep inside the lonely breast a yearning
For something beyond the bitter taste
Of this world’s incessant churning
Or, a human’s soul laid in utter waste
Sifting through the bleakest dogmas
Histories of seekers in days of yore
Rigid rules of ancient ‘membered dramas
None clothes of true spirituality wore
Comes the still, small voice of reason
Searching the depths yet to be known
The enlightened, earnest seeker sees in
Such a faith worthy to call one’s own
