Echo




GOD IS HERE!
God is Here!
god is here!
right here
right now
it is all true
all of it
the hereness
the second coming
the coming again
and again
and again

how do I tell you?
do I scream it?
do I howl it?
do I pray it?
do I beg you?
does it matter?

GOD IS HERE.

the first pulsars of
the cosmic shockwave
have pierced
the citadel
of perception

look
the how I know
the wheres
and hows dont matter

now
my vision may
be dismissed because
s/he/it is not
what
we were told to expect
you can only tell by
the truth and nakedness
of my words

I wasnt “told” any thing
no prophetic warnings
no special messages
nothing but wow
as the cosmic dimensions
of the pulsar embodiment
passed through
plain of existence

I am the village boy
running back to town
to tell everyone that
the foreign army has arrived
I am the village boy
half excited half scared
with no news except
life is about to change
I am the village boy
who will always be
able to say
I saw it first
among my friends

II
God’s shoe
the cosmic foot
rolls from heal to toe
the cylindrical arc of otherness
passes over
squishing all
Like some bug
on the ground

was I strong enough
to standwith death?
did the sacred asanas
teach the right angles
to pierce the
jeffersonian plane
a crumbs shoe
passed through
perfect wave
rolling energy
rhythmically
vibrating
infinity

in joy
in side
in Body
caverns
biotic archways
chambers
niagaras
filigree
veins
arteries
lungs
soul

this is the palace of kublai khan
this is the holy of holies
this is the maternal womb
this is the galactic center
this is the end of history
this is what everyone has been waiting for
this is golgotha revisited
this is arc and covenant
this is the alter
this is the unimagable
this is it

cohen
ginsberg
light hair
mckenna
jesu
nanak
patanjali
voltaire
vonnegut
me
you

III
I want my sperm released
I go to the center of now
cells shake
mind quakes
soul awakes

I want oneness
comfort
love
I want to be relieved of my burden
I want to rid myself of the blindness of sexuality
I want the orgasm of marriage
I want the pure love of the universe flowing through my veins
I want the reward
any reward

I dont want a dealer
I dont want a priest
I dont want a guru
I just want me
my wife
my children
with eyes open
be free from
distrust
dishonesty
bond
mortgage
servitude
that keep honesty & love at bay

FREEDOM
without forgiveness
or bankruptcy
of society
this American dream
is without works

Moloch
Satan
Ego
I have met you
Face to Face
Get behind me
You do not
Cannot
Exist
You cant see the Face
Of God
And live
You
Bind my awareness
To the depths
of depression
To the breadth
of education
To the heights
of worship

God is here

A Prayer for Equinox


Rely not on the teacher, but on the teaching.
Rely not on the words of the teaching, but on the spirit of the words.
Rely not on theory, but on experience.
Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it.
Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations.
Do not believe anything because it is spoken and rumored by many.
Do not believe in anything because it is written in your religious books.
Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders.
But after observation and analysis, when you find that anything agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and the benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it.

-- from the Kalama Sutra
