THE TRACKLESS PATH

The Last Leveling

5/10/2022

​It is said that we must learn
Both to give and to receive.
And that is true.
But to ask is a bitter pill.
And when it comes to earthly things
It is avoided by the faithful.
For somewhere along the way ,
We came to believe that taking care of ourselves
Was equal with righteousness.
And so we have reserved our desperate pleadings
For the solitude of our closets.
And for the time being,
We are permitted
To do our begging in private.
But the time is coming
When the best among us
Will be broken down to begging,
And that before the world.
And that’s ok.
It is part of the deep magic
That will change this world into something higher.
For we thought that the highest good
Was to need nothing of nobody.
But there is a higher good:
To give freely
And to receive freely
And to ask when we're in need.
These three comprise a key
That will unlock the gate
To a world without strife.
And together they will lay to rest
The miser and the pauper.
They will tear down
The high look
And raise the godly poor
To once again look us in the eye.
And all those who will not come
To this last leveling
Will be crushed
By their own obstinance.
It is inescapable.
