Staring
Contemplation is staring
into Love’s eyes
losing self, gaining….
:- Doug.

Nor poems of logic
Nor of persuasion
I write reality
What is there
For us all to see
:- Doug.
Two lovers lost in each other’s eyes
Worship is loving divinity
Worship is in sitting together
:- Doug.
We are our world. We are also our divinity. My image of divinity currently seems to be an all pervading presence. We are in and of divinity. But more than that, divinity is all there is. Divinity is not a “he” who is our “Nobodaddy,” our Daddy Warbucks, our personal magician, puppet, nor puppet-master. Divinity is powerless as Bonhoeffer says God is: suffering with us. Always with us. Responding. Not solving, but with us, for us. With us is more powerful than power.
Hear you in this the first shall be last, the meek shall inherit the earth?
