+--------"My Head In The Cloud; The Thoughts Of Joshua In The Tabernacle While Moses and God Were Speaking"

Sometimes mist and 
haze in the tabernacle that
surrounds us is too dark
and dense for eyes, a veil,
ethereal, of deceit draped over
perception, a suitable stage
for suggestions of the soul to act
on a captive mind, naïve and
laid bare before all hopes and
fears hitherto stashed. And the
thunderous voice of GOD (speaking
with Moses), flits of lightning, abrupt
flashes of fire his emotion animated,
are conducive to dreaming. At times,
I imagine myself raising hands before
a fleeing sea. Unsheathing my sword,
staff before Pharaoh for my people, a
leader of soldiers who kneel at
my word in the Promised Land. I think
about Moses dying…and if I’ll be ready
when God finally speaks...to me.    

------Exodus 33:7-11
And Moses took the tabernacle, and pitched it without the camp, afar off from the camp, and called it the Tabernacle of the congregation. And it came to pass, that every one which sought the Lord went out unto the tabernacle of the congregation, which was without the camp. And it came to pass, when Moses went out unto the tabernacle, that all the people rose up, and stood every man at his tent door, and looked after Moses, until he was gone into the tabernacle. And it came to pass, as Moses entered into the tabernacle, the cloudy pillar descended, and stood at the door of the tabernacle, and the Lord talked with Moses. And all the people saw the cloudy pillar stand at the tabernacle door: and all the people rose up and worshipped, every man in his tent door. And the Lord spake unto Moses face to face, as a man speaketh unto his friend. And he turned again into the camp: but his servant Joshua, the son of Nun, a young man, departed not out of the tabernacle.
