The headlight

The headlight of a car

Can throw light not afar

But, say, thirty yards.

With that in a pitch dark road

One can drive miles and miles.

The next thirty yard road

Will unfold while the first

Thirty yards are covered.

The next thirty yard road

Will unfold when the second

Thirty yards are covered.

Faith is a headlight

With which one is endowed

To tread in the world

Which is pitch-dark by itself.
