The Kingdom Within
 
 
 
The Kingdom Within
 
Once was not enough for one fragile boy
to fill the hole in the sand with the sea
so he took his brothers to dig deeper
because it is easier for the tide
to rise above the unbelieving rocks
indeed than it is to understand why
each grain of sand tells copious stories
that only the child’s eye can hear and feel.
Further down the gray powdered orifice
the waters swell out from sacred passage.
Small hands gather to drink in reverence,
only they know the thirst for after life,
only they know the truth beyond the hole
where dwells the Kingdom within - you and me
.
