Poetry about Fate

Fate

Not to think of God  
Is my tragic fate.  
Not to pray to God  
Is my hostile fate.  
Not to meditate on God  
Is my unthinkable fate.
Not to love God  
Is my unforgivable fate.
But to become eventually another God
Is my inexorable fate.

~

FATE 

Human fate,
I am afraid of you.
Divine fate,
I am fond of you.

Human fate,  
You remind me  
Of the things I cannot do,
Which are far beyond my capacity.

Divine fate,  
You tell me
That nothing is beyond my capacity,
Absolutely nothing,  
For I am of God-Height  
And  
For God-Depth.
