from flesh to dust
from life to death
from physical to spiritual
from death to life
from hatred to love
from pain to bliss
from heart break to union
from confusion to conclusion
from start to finish
from finite to infinite
from temporary to permanent
from prototype to final
from clay to pot
from death to life
from self to multitude
from emptiness to overflowing
from choice to chosen
from running to winning
from blindness to sight
from foolishness to wisdom
from prayer to salvation
from earth to heaven
for this is the nature of things
we are transformed
from the ways of the world
to the ways of the kingdom
Kingdom Come
As it is in heaven.
For we are limited here
in our world–games of numbers
games where foolishness is followed
and truth is revealed.
There was a time when there was no sound
no voice broke the silence
every event was explored at the same time.
Every moment encapsulated in eternity.
All time will slip through our grasp
every moment leading to our final gasp
what is it all for
we whine and ask–only hardships we store.
Life confused at every corner
knowing itself new from the former
change is a part of time I’m afraid
it is a part of earth
