Poems

Direction of thought

From the May 1987 issue of The Christian Science Journal


More stubborn than his beast
BalaamSee Numbers 22:21-26 rode a mortal will
toward great restriction—
matter's promises always run
from fat to thin—
like water through a funnel.

In humble discipline
EnochSee Genesis 5:24 walked through Spirit's
straight and narrow gate
and Mind expanded life
infinitely for him
like stepping from a tunnel.
