WHERE ARE WE GOING?
At the start of the new millennium,
I asked myself: where are we going?
There was a void, no reply forthcoming,
everything still, unfathomed vacuum.
To the moon, to Mars, or to Jupiter?
Silently I stood waiting and waiting,
there came no answer.
I looked up above, I gazed all around,
somehow the wait proved in vain,
there was no sound.
In a while I found myself in a strange place,
everything was moving, no familiar face.
Different voices whispered to me,
what are you seeking;
I conveyed to them what I sought,
some burst out laughing.
You fool of the 21st century,
you are just like us,
Devote yourself to God only,
All the rest is fuss.
