Find It Moving

Language isn’t terribly
Mysterious, but meaning
Beyond pure information—

Numinous, significant,
The thing moving in language,
Meaning as you make it—is.

You can say there is a glow
That lights the sky, and so what?
You can say there is a god

That lights the sky, and so what,
Although now you’re getting strange.
You can say that some people

Are suffering while others
Involved in their suffering
Ignore them, and that’s a fact.

But then you ask, then you ask
Why should there be suffering,
Why would anyone crave gods,

Why ask any such questions?
And you can feel it moving,
In you, a thing that you bring.
