Declaration of Interdependence

Speak, and listen,
For he who listens first spoke,
Into the void
To us;
For to those to whom he calls
He listens
For an answer,
Like the howling of a coyote across a dark horizon,
Beneath a full-lit moon,
Or a bell that summons to the congregation
A heavenly host of spirits incarnate.

Who speaks without listening?
Who calls and expects no reply?

Can creation withhold response,
Or the leaf refuse the sun?
