. . . for he hath written many things which he saw in
visions and in dreams . . .
First Nephi. Chapter One. Verse 16.
Some people are driven by visions and dreams;
They’re often derided for such odd extremes.
For most of us think of the world’s status quo
As having no need of prophetic hero.
Messages from beyond this mortal veil
Are better delivered by registered mail.
For why should we heed what a wild man does say,
That follows his fancies and calls them God’s way?
But tidings from worlds beyond this one are real;
Not always just merely a lunatic’s spiel.
Open, my heart, to less formal decrees
From those who might really be heaven’s trustees!
