FROM THE EXTENSIVE poems of Rainer Maria Rilke, the Second Coming takes the form of a dramatic monologue. Its protagonist is a monk who prays. However, the god he addresses has nothing in common with the stern and all-powerful god of the Scriptures.
The god of our monk, the god of the poem, is naked and terrified. He now sees: the resurrection of the dead that was promised does not lead to Resurrection but to horror. To that horror born from futile hope.
Next to this god, the only companion can be anyone who believed in him. For only he who once believed can reflect on the magnitude of faith's failure. And only he who was misled can forgive it.
The weakness of god is ultimately the measure of human weakness. Solidarity with him is solidarity with humanity itself.
