The Scarlet Letter
Volume II, Number 1 | August 1994
Heart & Sol
By Fr. Homo Solitarius

Open Heart upon the Flame
That Leaps beyond the Realms of Death.
The Two are Separate and the
Same
And Silence seals the Flowing
Breath.
Has Laughter heard tile Cries
of Pain?
Experiment; Exceed: Refrain!
To Die a Death each Waking
Day
Is Ecstasy in Passions Play.
Carress the Soul oh Perfect
Star
To find out Where and
Who You Are.

Open Heart upon the Flame
That Radiates the Open Sky
Must travel through the Shifting
Brain.
And Travel Past Because & Why.
The Spark is Set in Motion
And
Must Penetrate the Soul of' Man
To Form a Bond with None
And All
To Seek the Joy of Nature's Call
When this is Lost we have No
Name
And Everything Remains the
Same.

Open Heart upon the Flame
That Knows Thyself to Be.
A Noble Star within the Game
Of Life and Ecstasy.
Strike Low and Hard upon
The Man
Who Says what Thou canst
And Thou Can
For Ever Ready is the Grave
Which Waits upon the Serving
Slave.
Fear is Gone and Courage
Stands
Upon the Will and
Love of Man.
