Silence From God
by Oliver DrewmanStill and quiet is the night
Infinity that can make me whole
Listing flickering, daylight
Eternity awaits my dogged soul
Nothing stand between the stillness
Covering this vast array
Emptiness in our hearts illness
Father 'Abba' should we pray
Resisting all but sounds of 'Hurry'
Over to our mattress rest
Momentary thoughts, gone but worry
Going to this dream world's best
Oft is this why God is speaks not
Distraction sits on thrones He ought 10/23/2005 Author's Note: Written after reading "Perdita" by Louis MacNeice and "See it was like this when" by Lawrence Ferlingghetti
