| jars_the_harmonies | ||
| Mahayana |
A cry in the night overheard the planets in their courses make no sound, the earth is still, the very animals are mute. Why then the cry of the human? How it jars the harmonies! How it breaks in discord upon the unities of earth and air and sky. Earth and air and sky Century after century that cry has gone up. Mobbing high heaven, and always insanity in the cry, insanity in the crier what folly to protest where none shall hear there is no appeal from the law of nature it was made for beast and bird and creeping thing. [Will the human never learn that in the eye of the law one is not different from the things that creep] |
