Could you face that face

you had defaced?

In your mind jungle prevails

On hectic side roads -

Almost untraced,

Novel, bootless affairs,

Betrayals, infidelities -

A set-up that fails.

Running futile race,

Refusing golden gift

By unrepentant disgrace

That all schemes can't erase

(Run away, turn a tail

and still fail).

The Holy Visage

Can't be eluded

Ideal Heart

Ever deluded

At the crucial End,

All will face

All piercing Gaze.

No credible defense

For atrocious offense

No affairs to amuse

No pleas, defensible excuse

Can you face

The All-knowing Gaze?

Can you face that face

you had defaced?

Can you face my face?

The will of My Father..."
