We are fools who believe You are there,

if You are not there;

Otherwise, if You are there, we must wait confidently and patiently. . .

to see what it is that You will do.

Who is right and who is wrong

only time will tell.

You must be happy to look down and watch

as we sniff to investigate the terrain,

trying to discern the territory

as our senses, emotions, instincts and intelligence

try to sway our thinking,

battling amongst themselves and then against

each other, in our hopeless pursuit to discover

who will come out on top.

Those who believe or those who do not.

Much is invested in this age-old question,

and each side is certain it is right.

How long will we wait …

the further time goes forth,

the more unbelievers become victorious,

and those of us who believe wait and wonder,

unperturbed.

For You have called it long ago,

that we must remain steadfast, for nobody is to know …

That the time is now at hand.

Our leaders have sold us out to a world

of Your non-existence.

And so, that time is now at hand.
