The Man Outside
The Man Outside
“As you start to walk out on the way, the way appears.”
-Rumi
The man outside is a seeker and fighter,
Each day may be weightier,
He searches for a door out of the night,
To find a way that leads into perpetual light.
Hope sees light emerging from the night’s work,
It buoys the man outside like an ark,
Through the turbulent days,
Even though he doesn’t understand its hidden ways.
