vile creation--

our suffering contribution

to a plan so far beyond

comprehension

we can only call it chaos

the price for

some legalistic insanity clause

that demands we strive to transcend

then damns us for striving

to transcend--

and the lesson?

the atonement?

cease all striving--

to hell with all imaginings of God--

love and do as you will

(as the middle ages abbeys

used to emblazon

over their entrances)

ignore all idols

(including crucifixes

seals of Solomon

bo trees

camel drivers

infinity and hex signs

etc., etc.)

and tend only to

the God inside you---
