don't know

don't know
just don't
no
just don't
u no
that it's a swift mirage
of streams we chase
 looking for the end of dreams
carrying us into the heavenly bliss 
on earth 
where ne'er a bliss
be found
nor caught
but dreamt again
again and again
till the end 
of our days 
on earth 
begin



*Thirty-eight centuries ago humans like us stood there at Stonehenge under the deep dome of the night sky and understood something about human life for which the intellect alone is too shallow.  Only the heart is high and deep enough to hold this vision.  Only life lived to the full measures up to the task of contemplation.
-Brother David Steindl-Rast
