The Rolling People

We listen to words in the hum of an engine Missing the engine hum of words That hum to life inside the engine Godly speaking words of life: Humming, living, listening. We watch time roll with the planets Missing the planets' roll through time Rolling through the time of planets Living round the roll of lives: Rolling, living, watching. We speak to god in living voices Missing words from godly tongues Speaking through the words of god Uttering the gods of life: Godly, lively, utterly.
