WEEPERS OF THE WORLD
Salvation awaits the weepers of the world
who shed copious pools of tears
longing for the Divine
Blessed are they that cry for God
For She will surely come
as a mother who will not fail
to cuddle her crying child
And if the pump handle of devotion
brings only empty hollow clanks
from beneath the ground of our heart
then we must fall on our knees and weep
that tears have failed to roll down our cheeks
and if even those tears fail
dust our eyes with pepper
as an act of shear desperation!
Pray to our Divine Mother
that she deliver us
from the dry barren desert
of the intellect
And carry us into the verdant garden
of Divine Love
from which we may eat
the sweet fruit of immortal bliss
(note: the author does not actually suggest putting pepper in one's eyes
as this phrase is meant to be poetic metaphor).
