The Divine moves
in spirals
circling
ever
inward
towards
your heart.

Seeking
We are all seeking
the footbridge
back to God.
We wander,
sometimes near
sometimes far,
though choirs of angels direct our way.
God waits
for the moment that we
Finally
step on the bridge.
And then he runs to us
and wraps us up
in a big
bear hug.

Kittens
We are all
kittens
living in
the Beloved’s
Divine house.
Running scared
from His
Divine feet
And from all
the strange
sounds.

Something That Is
There are places
in this world
where once-useful
objects
sit crumbling
or rusting away.
Nothing here
is permanent.
Don’t you think,
Dear Ones,
that it’s time
to find something
that is?

Skylights
Some
hide from the light.
Some
build
armored cathedrals
to darkness
With twisty mazes
containing
several
different
minotaurs.
But God…
Our wild
joyful God,
Is always
knocking out
skylights.

Constant Shifting
This world
is filled with violence
in a constant shifting
ebb and flow.
Even things that look
peaceful,
like a beautiful bubbling stream
with an impressive waterfall,
are very slowly
grinding
down
the mountain.
Everything here returns
to dust,
sometimes quite painfully
with lots of angst
along the way.
That is why we are told
to love without reason.
For we are all
really
confronted with the same
problem.
Remember this,
and remember also,
that everyone who reacts
in anger
is really repeating
the same ancient mistake.
Everyone who kills
is forgetting
that she
or he
is sister or brother
to all the world.
Hatred is
the original
insanity.
Learn to embrace
your sanity.
It is there.
Listen to the voice
of love within.
It may be very quiet
if you haven’t been
paying attention.
Remember
that we are all stuck
in this madness
together.
And we all
free each other
with the love we give
and the peace
we share.
So love, my friends,
love.

Break
We cut our food here
Violently
then rip it apart
with our teeth.
We cut our hearts
and others’
as well.
But that
is a habit
we need
to break.

It Is
Happiness is not
dependent
on any thing
in this
tired
world.
All things here
are transient
winking in
and out
of life.
The true joy
cannot be
fueled
from such an
inconsistent
source.
Yet it is
there.
It is
true.
It is
the one
thing
that is
undying.
Seek that,
dear friends.
Seek that!

Seriously?
We seem to have picked up
the bad habit
of dividing into teams.
Us Vs Them.
Shirts Vs Skins.
Like after school
Basketball.
Except
it’s not just
a game,
and it’s not actually
The Superbowl For Your Soul.
God always wins
And You never lose.
But another bad habit
is that we treat
this wild
crazy
life
far
far
too
seriously.

What is Not There
Addicts
sometimes replace
one bad habit
with another.
Hard drugs
with cigarettes,
Alcohol
with nail biting,
TV watching
with internet addiction.
But this
is seeking
for what is not there.
Like a man
wandering lost
in Death Valley
Ignoring all
the flashing
neon signs:
OASIS →
THAT WAY!
It is time,
Dear One,
for you
to unstop your ears,
and listen.
The Beloved
will tell you
what to do.
His voice
at first
is much softer that
the angry screaming
you
have been listening to.
But if you listen
to Him only
the Desert
will
Bloom!
