The Merging

The Merging


Again I meet the day

And wield the sword of struggle

The cracks in my shield

Pray you mend, my Father.

 

Give to me the stamina to swing

Till evil fears the wielding arc

And draws away her warriors

Away from my decided heart.

 

Constancy come from without

Where I can but peruse your radiance

Enjoin me within, merge spirit to spirit

Till we are one, enwrapt in freedom.

 

 Oh for the merging, Father.

Where faith is faithful to her own.

And all unsettledness is on the waves

Far above the depths of sunken peace.

 

For there in the ocean depth below

The grains of sand are still, no breath.

In the deep beyond Hell’s swirls

In the depths of undisturbed spirit.

In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
