The Universal House of Justice, with its seat in Haifa Israel, represents another institutional stage in the fully legitimate institutionalization, routinization as the sociologist Max Weber might have put it, of Bahá'u'lláh's charismatic Force. My poetry and prose in this document deals with aspects of the first fifty-two years since this apex of Bahai Administration was put in place, and since this 10th stage of history has begun to unravel decade by decade from 1963 to 2015.

In many ways my life goal has been to serve as a precisioned instrument for this trustee of the global undertaking outlined in the massive corpus of Bahá'u'lláh's writings: 1852-1892. These early decades, the first half century, of this 10th stage of history, as well as the 9th stage(1953-1963) during which I was first associated with this Faith, can also be seen as part of a prelude to an eventual mass conversation to the Bahá'í Faith.

Often not very precisioned an instrument, this pioneer tells his story, his Faith's story and his society's story--only part of these now massive and complex stories. The subject matter here, part of a large poetic opus-epic, I dedicate to that trustee. I trust I offer, too, a perspective on the feeling of confidence with which Bahá'ís the world over contemplate the future of our planet and our race in spite of the many calamities of our time.
