God Self — A Lamentation

I pursue you with zeal
endless endurance
countless travails
infinite obstacles

I know you are there
but you hide
delighting in the cloak and dagger
rejoicing in my frustration

The trails I run down
are habitrails
a running without progress
…or is it?
You never let me know

I pursue you with zeal
but you never let me catch you
teasing me with your promise of imminence
torturing me with promises of loving kindness
but . . .
instead . . .
and however . . .
I end up where I started

Yet you are there
my past devoid of life
is now a rollercoaster of opportunity
of unexpected curves
departing from a banality of sameness

I feel you within me
an unexplained light
a warmth I cannot grasp but feel
You emerge mysteriously — without calling ahead for reservations
but you do emerge . . . mysteriously

We play a game of tag
that has no end in sight
but my pursuit of you, like grasping wind
makes me see you in glimpses

around the corner
