Ana Kata to the Infinite Well
“Shall we indeed accept good from God and not accept adversity?” (Job 2:10)
God’s face shines upon you. God’s face shines upon you.
Feeling in three dimensions, still, you are, most times.
You ana kata from the fire against your will,
Waiting to be born posthumously no longer,
For those whom the Lord loves, He disciplines. You cry,
Smitten with the madness of too much seeing, “Lord!â€
(Strong within your whirlwind of deluding spirits…)
“Lord!†Smitten with the madness of too much seeing,
You cry, for those whom the Lord loves, He disciplines.
No longer waiting to be born posthumously
Against your will: you ana kata from the fire.
Still… you are, most times, feeling in three dimensions.
God’s face shines upon you. God’s face shines upon you.
Wrested in obdurate stone, His seed is growing,
Watered from the infinite well. You remember
The rest of your life while living it. You awake:
“Is there anyone who dances through you?†He asks
(“Through to the division of soul and spirit – there,
Strong within your whirlwind of deluding spirits –
There, through to the division of soul and spiritâ€).
He asks, “Is there anyone who dances through you?â€
You awake: The rest of your life while living it,
You remember. Watered from the infinite well,
His seed is growing, wrested in obdurate stone.
