(based on Meditations on the Tarot by Anonymous)
The world turned upside down
coerces perspective,
requiring sacrifice
with serene acceptance.
Isaac spoke to his father Abraham.
“Father,” he said. “Here I am,
Here are the fire and the wood,
but where is the offering?” [1]
Now, the domain of freedom
is found between two spheres
with two different centers…
“Heaven” and “world”.
“Here I am” declares free will
“Where is the offering”
suggests an existential
crisis and a leap of faith.
Think, meditate, contemplate…
Will yields to possible
receptive obedience
enjoins revelation.
“The wind blows where it wills,
you hear the sound of it,
but you do not know
whence it comes or whither it goes.” [2]
[1] Genesis 22:7
[2] John 3:8
