For a wandering minstrel

A naïve song sung to a red guitar as wandering minstrels 
Might have sung ages back strumming ektars
The Divine will come, eat, sleep and dance
Being compliant in a devotee's hands

Primitive thoughts. As if God changed state
Like matter. Easier to relate a Being so great
To white light, core units like atoms and quarks,
Blackholes, building blocks of skies and the stars

Quintessential entities that cannot be measured, only felt
And perceived. Fragrance, breeze, love, peace - Ethereal
Comparisons better befit the greatest concept of all
Than gross human traits. Yet, the first note of the dulcet voice

Dissolves such primitive logic as well.  This alone is clear
The Divine is listening to this song, if He can hear...
