‘…’

Joel K.H. Soh

Wonder: Heavens and deeps fashioned in order,
Lies all lives at the mercy of equilibrium,
Confined within a system, a system within a plan,
An ever divine power, our never capable understanding;
Who sought to seek? You ought not to ask,
Of futile efforts that make vain jokes;
Oh, we laugh about now and then; spit on them even worst,
Those who tried and fail; those who try and will fail.
Thus is it not obvious?
Certain terms comprehension permits; a license for limitations, some may say.
Hence do not bypass the word; the word is ‘infinite’
Stop pretending to perceive it well, you see it not,
How would you know?

Ponder: Head to toe; only these are yours!
Lies all matters in tangles and knots,
Confined within you, you within nothing!
That ever divine call, your never will to heed.
How far have I strayed? Far enough! Realize:
Of blind headings that make vain jokes;
Oh, everyone laughs now and then; spit on you even worst,
You who tried and fail; you who failed and never got up.
Thus is it not obvious?
One term comprehension provides; that you may persevere, so He says.
Hold on tight, it is your might; the word is ‘faith’
Stop pretending to perceive it well, it requires living it,
Since you see it not!
