I have had to go down on my knees: A poem 

I could have been caught in an abyss 

where no angels dare to go 

But wherever I go, who should follow? 

There must always be an unwanted shadow 

This anti-matter; is it freedom or annihilation 

You know, dark energy and dark matter are hidden even in light 

Stealth is always invisible to the innocent 

So, I must, sometimes, transcend the universe 

like a favourite dress that I must toss out 

because it was worn, illegitimately, by the enemy. 

And the enemy always claims it is his money 

Yet, he knows he has only thieved it 

If I take all, I lose my wherewithal 

As if I don’t know that my decisiveness is my failure 

So, I don’t want to be Caesar or Genghis Khan 

I don’t want anyone to be subject to me 

I can tell you, that freedom can be beyond our sights 

for all our stargazing. Yet, should we care to see 

that God incarnates to save us all, 

even if he has to go down on his knees
