Of Course the Essence of it All
Of course the essence of it all is love How else explain the hardest blackest coal nugget turns to diamond clenched in earth’s…
If illness by Allah is science fact
then its cure is
science fiction by a mad
scientist we hope’s on the right track
his beakers abubble his machinery abuzz
the light in the air growing youthful
peach fuzz
a pasture of health in the distance
waiting for us
to arrive in one piece and
run on its grass
into the open space
of His Merciful Face
