Vicious Circle
Fr. Paul Ward

 

A blade of grass

doesn’t grow alone,

but with earth and sun

and air and water.

 

Man, do you grow alone?

What is your humus and power,

your breath and growth?

 

The world of man is the humus of man.

His humus is his neighbors.

His power, his air and water,

all this of his, is the world of man.

 

In man is the rising and the falling,

In man is the answer to ever question of man,

In man is the school for every man.

 

Infinite morphology of man!

You would be a vicious circle,

if it weren’t for your God and creator...

... who, too, became man.
