• The Spilled Cup

The Universe: His wine cellar;

The atom’s heart: His measuring cup.

Intellect is drunk, earth drunk, sky drunk

heaven perplexed with Him, restlessly seeking,

Love in its heart, hoping at least

for a single whiff of the fragrance

of that wine, that clear wine the angels drank

from that immaterial pot, a sip of the dregs,

the rest poured out upon the dust:

one sip, and the Elements whirl in drunken dance

falling now into water, now in blazing fire.

And from the smell of that spilled cup

man rises from the dust and soars to heaven.
