Seeking God


When seeking your belief, did you by any chance think of God before ever reading the story in your holy book? Did you not seek him at your first breath? Did God not have you from your beginning just as God will have you in the never-end of Heaven? We all find God at our births, for there is no God without conception. See?

(I shudder to imagine my fate after this news...)

Did you by any chance imagine for a second, since you "found" God, that maybe it is not a story, but a way of being? Humble, needful, kind, loving, giving, helpful and peaceful? A child of Creation? Of the very God you profess to me that finds Hell a thing worth manifesting from our most fervent beliefs in it? I mean, what is the alternative for a creator if Heaven and Hell are the only options for Creation's offspring? Hell? Not on your pious life, not on your judgmental life, not on your short-sighted faith, not on your life, my friends, my brothers and sisters, will I ever demand another follow God by initiating a threat.

It is rather simple, we are to Love one another, a command most sensed in our animal and in our spirit, long before words. If God demands that we Love and Forgive, why would God allow one child to descend into humankind's delusions of grandeur?

Equals, through and through. Sovereigns of Home... free, willful, a collective of saviors to Home and Life.

I have been witness to the four pillars and see no reason to carry death there. Doesn’t the world know that life moves for more than just the sons of Abraham? O! I see the stunned throats floating by in the dusk to their stiff-limbed sleep as metal rains down over the Jordan’s western prophet, children dying there. I am here, waiting, breathing in the dusk under the shadow of the patriarch, asking, can we again build the shrine inside the soul and leave our flesh to time? © 2008 mrp/thepoetryman

Waiting for It

Why do they stay there, between war and peace? Sky’s tapestry doles out guns, bombs and rocks while flesh and bone swim away from the ache yet live on as the food for the murder of peace. Why do we hide from the truth as if it were an ogre while death makes a home inside their living and war dispatches a raven to their door, smirking with the teeth of empire? Why do we wait, stooped for another wink? The sky’s drapery has tossed down ample clues, peace is breathing in harmony with war. (Road-maps are useless to blind leaders.) Why do they hold there, hunched in the gloom? Hatred’s bird cackling with bereavement needs end. Are we not rightly dishonored when we fill its trough with blood? © 2007 mrp/thepoetryman

Laughter's Grip

They asked me to wait. To wait for God to come laughing, wait on His voice to destroy the golden temples of man, hold my tongue until His powerful breath was upon me, and from His loving casualties I’d at last know the Savior. They asked me to wait. To wait for God to come laughing, wait for His followers to die away their persuasive babble and the murder of Islam to breach the walls of the earth as the many damned souls drowned under holy laughter. “O! The Lord God is looming! On his way with God’s wrath! We are to take up swords and send evil howling back to die their well deserved and slow death! Their faces popped and spattered these words as they fell back, caught in His fiery presence, twisting their tongues into drivel and thrashing their minds in the glory of an Eden unlike any other. And then the snake planted his venom through the laughter of their gyrating madness. Tears emptied their pockets, spirits came crashing , and the anointed rapture of their making grew tire...
