When will the vessel
Burst forth from the blaze
In a translucent,
Resplendent glaze?
How long will the devil
Dance on a dead man’s grave?
I look to the skies, but
Alas! Only rain.
Yet, God is not dead
As Nietzsche has said,
But the fourth man*
Walking in the
Midst of my flame.
* "Look! I see four men walking around in the fire, unbound and unharmed, and the fourth looks like a son of the gods," said the Babylonian king Nebuchadnezzar as he described the being in the blazing furnace with the three Hebrew youths whom he had seemingly executed (Dan. 3:25, NIV).

Like it. Good stuff.I love the "walking" part of the Fourth Man Walking.... He is living, breathing and walking.
