Power of mind
Flows out from the glacier of beliefs!
This mighty flow can
Create, destroy or soothe the shores.

The peaks of culture
Cladded with the snow of beliefs
Can melt
When the gentle warmth of
Quest blows over it
To provide the power you seek!

No reason to fear that the
Glacier will melt out
To expose the peaks bare!
The sediment is too thick
to be melted and finished!

But the present has thrown
All it's wastes into this snow of strength!
As the half life period
Of certain nuclear waste is too long...
The cancer of weakness may spread
And the malignancy may drain all
the stored power of believes!
At any time a flash flood
May drain out the rich alluvium
Of human culture!
