she looked at me
confused eyes crossed
startled
twisted,
her expression hung
in the morning air...
righteous face
curled lips
seeing a man
me
as if I had 3 heads
one speaking Mandarin
one speaking Latin
one speaking Greek
she had just asked me
a simple question
"what is your religion?"
I told her
it is Love
what to worship
what to worship
If you do not change your direction
you may end up where you are heading
you may end up where you are heading
Re: what to worship
Wow
Reminds me of a story I wish I'd written that appeared in my high school literary magazine - about the ultimate military computer, programmed to develop unbeatable tactics & strategies - the brass was demonstrating its power - asked it for the ultimate secret to conquest. Its reply: "Love thy neighbor as thyself." A confused technicial looks at the printout & says "Sir, there's something wrong with the machine - it isn't making any sense."

Re: what to worship
I love to love - to feel that freshness of service
Giving without expectations
However : I worship creative ideas that can send me to an altered state- the dredging of my silver linings
I have enjoyed the company of buddah and Jesus
And even some amazing medicine people
But I learned that anything I worship disappeared
That the ticket was to surrender to the house of Spirit
The God
The whole crew
And let the angels take care of you-
If I could heal the hearts of the people
I would ask for gentle lessons
And no cracks in my eggs at the super market
Certainly - what I want : is not the priority
At any rate- for the longest time
I worship life
Filled with love and big dreams

reason is over rated, as is logic and common sense-i much prefer the passions of a crazy old woman, cats and dogs and jungle foliage- tropic rain-and a defined sense of who brings the stars up at night and the sun up in the morning---
