No longer, the dread -
sun is tired and souls are bled...
the sacred has fled!
Earth, sea, sky are dead -
Spirit dwells so far away;
thou wept no more.
Thy vision
lay shattered!

Vision Quest
Son of mine,
the wilderness is within thyself!
So must you look
- no further -
until you have found
your own true self first.
The wilderness is within yourself
and across this forbidding expanse
of aridity and dark desolation,
you must reach out
with all your soul
and with all your love and might
that you may return again
- into yourself.
So be still, my son,
be surrounded by the Stillness
and in the quiet of thy heart - know.
The wilderness is within yourself
and so must you cease
from all thy useless wandering
until the God Who journeys to find thee
have completely arrived in thee -
that you may know where thou must go!
