Prophets


As consciousness persuades the penitent
toward industry and virtue and goodness,

the mindful ponder the true self:   if
the world is illusion, then the penitent

are deluded; if the heavens rise above, then
the penitent shall, at some strange point, rise:

if the prophets are deliverers, the mindful
remain bewildered:   there is no peace
      among men.
