silence of the sky (Free verse) by david
in the silence of the sky, we spoke of the silver moon, how every house must have a builder, how the fields of green were a blessing and how the rocks would cry out, "be praised for all your tenderness, and by the works of you the builder, whose miracle is never known by all" streets, cars, and cement mixers were alien things to us, no more than idioms of an archaic language.

'We' are fans of David Hume, I think.

Curious that you should mention David Hume; I recently (re-)read his essay 'Of the Standard of Good Taste'. He was a smart cookie, but as for the nonsense of him being the greatest philosopher to have written in the English language, it's a big stretch IMO.
