divine humanity

the unsatisfying
surface
play

of our feeble
egoistic
emotions

must be ousted

and there must be
revealed instead
a deep secret

and vast psychic heart
within that waits
behind them for
its hour;

all our feelings impelled
by this inner heart
in which dwells

the Divine

will be transmuted
into calm and intense movements
of a twin passion

of divine Love
and
manifold Ananda
