The Oldest God in the World


Upon this
the oldest God and the youngest God concur:
The world is a bridge
Cross it but build no house upon it
The world endures for but an hour
Spend it in devotion
The rest is unseen




The Oldest God in the World [#51]

Thank you, Michael Wood & Yehoshua ben Yosef
