Once
Or twice
I was
Fooled
Thinking
The inner
Was
The outer
God
What was
Seen and
Felt
But such
Inner/outer
Outer/inner
Insuperability
Was only
The name of
God, not
You
The failure to
Overcome the
Difficulty with
Which you are
I leaned we
Don’t want God
We want to say
We want God
Calling the name
Of God instead of
Looking beyond
Sound to the
Nothing there
Without echo
Lightless listening
Empty emptiness
It seems we don’t
Want God
We want the echo
Our own voice
Hitting off
Something
Insuperable
Satisfying —
God not being
There
Without a
Sound
(Call it)
Nothing
Like
This
