Expansion
Yes, it’s delicious to receive
what we want, but notice we still
want something new. Expansion is
not about acquisition; but about
the new place that’s in view.
Achieving a new vista of
perspective as a result of chasing
a desire, no matter how correct
the prediction, we have vision
we hadn't held prior.

You and I
You and I have differences
in thought, belief, behavior.
If we focus on those divergences,
we do neither of us a favor.
Let us view this relationship,
not difficult and troubled,
but valued as an entity
with a capacity now doubled.

Does God Have a Gender
Does God have a gender?
Perhaps a chap with a beard?
A woman with whatever?
Or would both be mirrored?
Or do you really even think
God would look like a human,
when God is in everything,
only partly illumined.
We are looking at God
whenever our eyes
see no separation,
but ourselves in disguise.

Every Blade of Grass
Every blade of grass we see,
every flower and all that's near it,
every sound and smell and star
is a molecule of Spirit.
The space between our body's atoms
is as that between earth and sun.
We see borders around these particles,
and separateness where it's one.
Yes, we call them all particles,
yet like packets of energies,
they exist as pure potential
and multiple probabilities.
The point is, if we're looking through
the most powerful microscope,
we'll see the building blocks of life
are wisps of...

Consider a Cloud
Consider a cloud,
a certain shape. But change
it will, you know. Perhaps it will
disappear or drop and become
new rain or snow.
Into the ground, a part
of a vine, a person, place,
or thing. Wherever it goes,
however combined, no form
does it stay and cling.
Nothing 'physical' remains
one way, which is why we will
never die. Winds will blow to
become what may. We are clouds
across the sky.
