Connected Collective

(We are not alone)

©2012, Olan L. Smith

---

A singularity rebounds in absolute song―

Adornment astounds. Our wonderful cosmos is not wrong―

It enfolds, encompasses Charity protecting all souls.

Our gods create; it appeases totality and thus it enrolls

In the Divine the heavenly [buttressed with love, hope

And freedom], and within lonesomeness is encompassed to cope,

Pushed against a celestial coast faith enlarges for the duration,

Where quanta enmeshes, where strings in unison

Attach to the earth and celestial things [corporal and incorporeal],

Where exceptional lies not unaided rather escorts life's unending spiral

And we shall take our place as part of multitudes. We live

A million lifetimes unaware of grace; we have lived before―we are furtive

Knowing life's inadequacies, and yet; we exist in aplomb.

Thus, who is unaccompanied within a sea of encouraging calm?
