It Is Within Poem by emilio anaya

it is not in a foreign land.
it is not in another person.
it is not in a building.
it is not in nature.
it is not in a plant.
it is not in an animal.
it is not in a book.
it is not in a dream.
it is not in a prophecy.
it is not in the past.
it is not in the future.
it is the here and now.
it is the god in man.
it is man in god.
it is within.
