A voice calling out in the desert.
She has a pail with which to collect the water
From the Great Fountain of Life
She is the vessel for the Earth
And we did not see her.
See, how she handles her pail with care
Indeed it has stood the test of time
The time of the eternal and the infinite
See how the sand around her scorns her
For in this desert of life, what use is a pail?
Watch the people taunt her.
Watch them spit on her
Watch them discard her like a rag
See the man who casts the first stone?
Watch him, for history shall listen to his story
See the love the people have for him
Heaping him with undue adorations.
What him become a great man in history
Watch her....
She remains silent.
The wise men reason with her
The strong threaten her
The martyr would die for her
All just to change her mind
'Oh she is insane' they say
'A woman without talent nor beauty' says more
'She says she shall bring to us the water of the spirit
Yet surely in her mind she is lost.'
'For we need not this magikal water
We need water for our bodies
Our parents and our children '
At this hear her speak
Listen to her voice
Flow like a gentle stream
Hear the tears in her eyes
Resonate through her voice
'Listen. To the Sound of Natures Speech'
'You have all forgotten truth
You have all become lost
See you survive off the dust of the Earth
When I offer you water with which to live
Oh I have waited
I have waited day and night
For the time when you would turn to me
Without scorn or hatred.
Without a need to dissuade
Without a need to control
Nor destroy
I am in this desert before you
I am in this desert after you
I have my pail and you laugh
Yet you have no pail.
For you never look to things to become better
And therefore you have blinded yourself to all that is
For all that could be. Is.
If you knew the truth
You would have a pail
By that act you would create your rain.
You of little faith
I shall go into the desert
And there shall I weep for you.
For you having no faith
For you having no dream
For you having forgotten
And for you not knowing.
So shall I weep.
Night and Day
Day and Night
So shall I weep
See I shall return one day
Bringing my pail of tears
So that you
Through my souls tears
May have life
