The Still Small Voice
The still, small voice no longer can be heard.
The sacred, silent space unoccupied
No burning bush nor tempest speak The Word.
We centre our whole self on the absurd
For iPads cannot pass through any eye
The still, small voice no longer can be heard.

No burning bush nor tempest speak The Word.
The altar’s stripped, the rituals are nightmares.
The ancient priest says Mass and wonders why

No burning bush nor tempest speak The Word.
No one is an island, John Donne cried

The still ,small voice no longer can be heard.
No burning bush nor tempest speak The Wor
