BE GONE!

Elliot Oladipo Yemitan

Be gone!
You liar—
For my Father knows nothing of you
And what presence have you here?

Be gone!
I order—
For the allness of God
Allows no room for fear or pain

Be gone!
You crier
For attention and place in thought,
Which I resolutely refuse to concede

Be gone
Forever!
For I know you to be error
Having no place in my consciousness

Be gone!
I cheer—
For the harmony of my being is sure,
My sonship with God, Life, indissoluble.
