My soul's victory
Before my fantasies were all vague.Slowly they have now taken shape.
My golden tomorrows are dawning fast.
No more I’ll be a human ape.
I snatched my Goal out of death’s embrace.
Ecstasy unbarred shoots through my life.
My glance has pinned falsehood to the ground.
God’s own Breath now beats against my face.
