Barren windswept place:
The Man-Ape stands on two legs
And realizes God!

Earth is rich and warm
Wanderer takes small seeds and
Gives back to the soil!

Should Humans be Slaves?
Let us catch the wind and make
It push our boats!

Child stands by the sea;
Are there other lands out there?
Let us go and see!

Small silver Spider
Webless, comes forth from its womb
Man now knows TWO worlds!

Red fiery Mountains!
Mars-winds howl out their anger!
No use; Man has come!

Deep night. Stars glow strong
The little Starship shoots on
In the hands of God!

The shuttle craft zooms
Low, over the new World. Look!
Man is not alone!

The galaxy: full
Of Life. Friends and foes,
Adventure. Knowledge!

Golden wheels, waltzing
Whirling in the velvetness
Mankind comes to live.

The Golden Being
Soars over His turning worlds.
Calls. His Children come!

Star-set of the worlds.
The God-Sons float like FIRE-FLIES.
Safe airless freedom!

Ylem explodes. Its
dust Like Phoenixes, become
New Worlds! Time Begins again!
