(Note: This poem is based on the prose writing "Wide and Deep" posted on this site 1/6/09)
Let us get out
the most powerful lens
and look closely
at what is at hand
and set aside the assumptions
and patterns of our beliefs
Let us examine
in minute detail
the circumstance
of our being
the miracle of existence
that infuses all things
Let us look
so closely
that the myth of separation
falls away
as we merge
with what is before us
Let us become
the scientists
who reveal and savor
the essence of Life
eclipsing any oration
or ancient sacred text
