Analysis of Within Us All...
No people or culture
lack the knowledge of God,
no matter how tribal
or famed
A Buddhist, Swahili,
a Mayan or Jew,
His message embedded,
ingrained
Those willing to listen
and heed to His call,
a power within
drives them on
Until Armageddon
brings light to the dark,
our natures so given
—to Him will belong
(The First Book Of Prayers: January, 2022)
