The Utmost Vision
and I need no-one
to know true beauty
to know the depths of
disparity to visit the
heights of the earth
for the soul to fly
from dearth to polar
heaven in its dream - I need
no-one to feel
like I have been, I have
seen such strange things
on my own, alone
I have been all things
known all plans, felt
God emanate from
the palm of my hand
when spirit filled the room
when love dispersed the gloom
when the shadow ran down
the long wall and
disappeared - I have felt
the utmost when
no-one was here
to hear me cry
