Meditations, Metaphors, Similes, and Paradoxes About Reality

1

A mountain
rising high above the plain.
We approach
by a winding path
that wanders hither and yon.
From the path
we catch only fleeting glimpses
of the summit.

2

A city
whose dancing lights
sparkle in the midnight darkness,
but whose streets
are strewn with the bodies of dead cats
beneath the noonday sun.

3

The warble of a sparrow
coming from the throat of a vulture.

4

Teh purr of a lion
come from the throat of a house cat.

5

The song of death
emanating from the cathedral of life.

6

The spirit journeys from reality to reality!
Moving forward--
from conception to birth
from birth to death--
it enters
the Mercy of God
and sells in the spiritual realm.
Where
it is free of the physical,
but never from its choices.

7

         The earth still moves about the sun,
But shattered by a sudden shaking,
The sun orbits the galactic core,
         My world view begin cracking.

8

Religion as commonly practiced
in the world today
has absolutely nothing
to do with God.

Religion as uncommonly practiced
in the world today
guides humanity
to the reality of God.

9

I'm tired of
the Them and Us attitude
that separates by color and creed
the children of a single
human seed.

10

Peace!
         I hear men talking everywhere of peace,
         but there will be no peace,
         as long as we divide humankind,
                   into THEM and US.
