Refining these impatient Ones

With Hammer, and with Blaze

Until the designated Light

Repudiate the Forge –

To hear a Oriole sing
May be a common thing –
Or only a divine.

 

It is not of the Bird
Who sings the same, unheard,
As unto Crowd –

 

The Fashion of the Ear
Attireth that it hear
In Dun, or fair –

 

So whether it be Rune,
Or whether it be +none + din –
Is of within –     

 

 ¦

 

The ′′Tune is in the Tree –′′
The Skeptic – showeth me –
′′No Sir! In Thee!′′

I reason, Earth is short –

And Anguish – absolute –
And many hurt,
But, what of that?

 

I reason, we could die –
The best Vitality 
Cannot excel Decay,
But, what of that ?

 

I reason, that in Heaven –
Somehow, it will be even –
Some new Equation, given –
But, what of that?
