It can take you places
as yet undiscovered
On journeys far off
and unchartered
Empower you to stay unfazed
in the face of a tempest
and sleep through a storm
without a wink lost or hastened
It can make you leap valleys
and move mountains
and fly on the wings
featherless
And bury you deep, distanced from all things light
with dirt filling eyes, ears and nose
without feeling drained of life
or short on breath
Choose your faith
lest it chooses you
And leaves you deaf, blind and dead
while you still draw breath
