the DooR

i stand by the door,
i neither go too far in, nor stay too far out,
the door is the most important door in the world--
it is the door through which men walk when they
find God.
there's no use by going way inside, and staying there,
when so many are sill outside and they, as much as i,
crave to know where the door is.
... the most tremendous thing in the world
is for men to find that door-- the door to God.
the most important thing any man can do
is to take hold of one of those blind, groping hands.
and put it on the latch--the latch that only clicks
and opens to man's own touch.
... so i stand by the door and wait.
for those who see it.
"i'd rather be a door-keeper" so i stand by the door.
