Light the Essential Key . . .
Light
enters---
The
essential key---fit to turn---locked places---
Open
pathways to the Brightness
That
ever waits to welcome those
Not afraid of being, turned, to be released
They
are not strong who hear and answer the call
It
was the weak who were decided unto life in death
Who
were not afraid of being found out in their dark
Pliable
to the inner dream---
Loving
light more than themselves
The
few who didn’t run away
Found
their island fortressed---
By the light that
stripped them, bare---
Their
very nakedness their armour
Their willingness to be taken
I
found my island in today
Green
and growing in burning brightness
Planted
with cowardice’s destroyer
The
joy which laughs at discomfort
For
not the comforted are consoled
Take
me all! ---Let not my cringing soul
Forbid
its healing---in clinging to the same old way
Fortress
me with new wine---death to my, self deceit:
Capture
me---again and again---turn me by light
Let
it pierce and divide betwixt joint and marrow
