To Celebrate Not Explain The Mystery
And I heard a voice
a silvery voice wrapped
in secrets of red and purple
telling me to go
deep, deep inside myself
deep to the deepest part where the light lay
in the center of the darkness
that it would be
here
I would find the celebration
of who I am, why I exist,
where I come from and where I am going
and in this celebration
I would find
the explanation that requires no explaining
the knowledge that requires no knowing
the answer that requires no questioning
and then I would
understand
and then I would not understand
and then it would not matter.
