Haughty Spirit Poem by Haile Tesfaye

Haughty Spirit



The human desire contains worms and is like
a sieve that can never be filled. As hawk dives
without awareness, the haughty spirit of man
has sailed unto the ocean's desert to drown in
his own understandings. Therefore, to rebut the
notion of a Deity is like to refute the existence
of the sun when concealed by darkness or when
the moon is obscured by clouds.

Lovely poem. Agreed. We do not dispute the existence of deity but the claim to knowing what form or that your understanding of the Deity is the correct one. That is politics and mind control. The sun i cannot deny its presence. We have sent a Parker Probe to study it. Deity there 408 known understandings but until we send a deity probe lets not pretend we know Him.
