In deepest solitude
I found the narrow way:
a secret giving such release
that I was stunned and stammering
rising above all science.
~ from I CAME INTO THE UNKNOWING by St. John of the Cross
Just sit there right now
Don't do a thing
Just rest
For your separation from God
Is the hardest work in this world
Let me bring you trays of food
And something that you like to drink
You can use my soft words
As a cushion for your head
