Moses (poet-prophet-songwriter) began the work. But not until over one thousand years later, in the postexilic days of 460 BCE, did this emotionally charged book of prophecy that celebrates Jehovah's grandeur and \"dynamic energy\" and mighty acts of fame come to its close. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAn excerpt \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eChapter 90 \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMay The Wind Draw You Out \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eLittle mist, \u003cbr\u003eConfident in the wind\u003cbr\u003eAnd shadow, \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAnd affairs of Nimrod\u003cbr\u003eOf the dry land, \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSee the days of timbers\u003cbr\u003eAnd saws and lands free\u003cbr\u003eFor ships to sail into; \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMay the moon your witness\u003cbr\u003eDraw curves of strange smiles\u003cbr\u003eAnd lovely reminders of\u003cbr\u003eWhat shall yet come to pass\u003cbr\u003eTo fill your belly of vapours; \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMay wind draw you out beyond\u003cbr\u003eThe ends of the earth\u003cbr\u003eAnd your nose, \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eLittle mist, \u003cbr\u003eRemove your hands from Sheol, \u003cbr\u003eAnd any darkness that dares to creep\u003cbr\u003eInto your white cortex\u003cbr\u003eOf thinking self. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eLittle mist, \u003cbr\u003eConfident in the wind\u003cbr\u003eAnd shadow- \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFinally, finally. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe author \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDan Lukiv, published in 19 countries, is a poet, novelist, columnist, short story and article writer, and independent education researcher (hermeneutic phenomenology).
