Man's mind is too full of the world;
his stomach is demanding too much of his time and energy.
His desires and wants are multiplying too fast
for his capacity to satisfy them.
His dreams are far too real for him;
they lead him into false victories and absurd adventures,
Engrossed in the analysis of the material world,
he has lost all sense of spirit, sweetness and sublimity.
Under this new dispensation, truth has
become just a word in the dictionary.
Compassion is reduced to a meaningless travesty,
and humility, patience and reverence have become
invalid as a flameless lamp in the far distance.
The only hold that man has in this dreadful darkness is the Name of God.
That is the raft which will take him across the stormy sea darkened by hate and fear, churned by anxiety and terror.
