I am a wandering soul
that’s not a soul
according to
modern wisdom,
just a very complex
machine they say,
for there is no more
than a great combination
that struts on this
temporary stage of life
and finds its
troubled way to dusty death.
Well, that may be
and who am I
to argue against
the tide of thought
of a scientific
and rational turn;
but still I say
in the truth that
I feel and am
ready to pronounce,
that I am a wandering soul
hewn from eternity’s awful wake.
