STAR LIGHT

The Heritage of the Stars
Is Enlightenment for all Time,
The Spirit
Of Generations, Of Personal Definition.

The Expanding Universe Balloons
Into Space Unclaimed,
Inflating Each Reach
With Particular Intention.

The Awareness of the Cosmos
Is the Influence of Purpose;
And the Destiny of Light
Is Human Destiny,
The Destiny of Self-Consciousness.

The Pulse of Cosmic History
Is the Impulse of Every Age,
Of Every Awareness,
In Quest of Inflation's Purposes
And Destiny's Possibilities.

Divinity's Touch Is
A Presence
Unspeakably Delicate,
Vociferously Uncompromising.

Our Very Person Quietly
Takes in
And Certainly Breathes Out
Enlightenment's Soul
From the Stuff of the Stars.

We are a Mighty Cataclysm
Happening
By Forces
Of Destiny and Purpose;

We are Missives Sent
On Missions,
Spending and Spent:

We are Light Pulsing
Original Themes
Of Day and Night.

Blind to Reality
In Mindless Night,
Alert to Presence
In the Reality of Light.

We are Cell Blocks
Of Imprisoned Impulse;
We are Visionaries of Light,
Bent,
And Despairing of Dark;
But through it all,
Every Dawning, Every Enlightenment
Of First Day,
And Second, Brighter than the First,
Opens to Constant Lighting,
Insistent On Dawnings
Of Enlightenments Untold.
