WHY WE CAME AND WHETHER WE GO

we forget why we came or whether we go

and so each of our imagined inner gods

war with another's

forge alliances with the ones who agree

and pursue endless vendettas against ones who don't


and it will never be any different in the earth

this is where we forge some greater understand

and succeed or fail according to our lights

and our faulty bonds and our frazzled delusions

oh is it any wonder Jesus wept?


bow and scrape before whatever avatar or notion of the Infinite

you were trained to bless and to cling to...

those of us who stumble outside your gated realities

take your curses as blessings...and the One's silence as balm....
