"Everything Falls Away" is an aria from a musical setting of Santa Barbara poet Teddy Macker's, "Halo of Dust." The full poem switches between third and first person perspectives, as well as prose and verse to signal moments of introspective wisdom.

This short excerpt sets the poem's narrative climax where the protagonist, St. Francis of Assissi, shares with his community the mystical epiphany that reveals itself:
