as i course through the veins of time
pointing and flowing to tapered end
and infinite prongs and spikes
of suffering heat and selfish gain
the torment of tortured souls
seeks satisfaction
from noise incessant and dull ache
that grows in cancerous mass
robbing freedom flowing
for a life laid down
feeding absolution
to the mouths of want
as i course through the veins of time
forgiveness flows in Goodwill’s grace
healing smarts and stings
of cruel spikes
in His life laid down
where forgiveness flows through
infinite prongs and spikes
of baked suffering
bringing ease and calm repose
- - - mending minds
O’ Divine Celestial Peace
let love and forgiveness flow
from the Wellspring of life
as it retunes to Source End.
