The man who has many answers
is often found
in the theaters of information
where he offers, graciously,
his deep findings.
While the man who has only questions,
to comfort himself, makes music.

Spirit that hears each one of us, hears all that is -- Listens, listens, hears us out -- inspire us now! Our own pulse beats in every stranger's throat. And also within the flowered ground beneath our feet. We can hear it in water, in wood, and even in stone. We are earth of this earth, and we are bone of this bone. This is a prayer I sing, for we have forgotten this and so the earth is perishing.
