God Opens Like A Flower
The word God opened like a flower ...
Do you hear the Silence?
See this Brightness?
There is a Face of you
without a picture frame
A sweet scent fills a Place ...
perfume that was before any bottle
Every sanctuary's windows
open outward to such Mystery!
"Go There!"
The words of Holy Writ
dissolve in Rapturous Bliss
Someone yelled out a name
before there existed a religion
"That is This!
That is This! Awaken!"
Fly like a bird
Wind be your guide
There is an expanse
The Beloved waits for you There
For the Sun kisses your wings ...
Fly, and shout with delight!
The day is the Bread
The night is the Wine
Disdain every cage
confining spirit
The way that led to burial in the Jordan
is the way that dies in this Resurrection
There is a Word
laughing at every word - Yes "God"
Let the Fire within you consume
the box in which you tried to contain Mystery
Welcome every entrance
into this Bliss!
Someone said, "Brian, how do you know when you are There?"
I spoke, "I know only one Love."
Do I sound foolish? ~ then
"Hallalujah! Amen."
Do you think getting Here is hard?
No way. "Just relax?"
Watch the Light pierce the darkness
while you exclaim "Wow!"

That I do not know God, does not mean I do not know God is - though, I assure you, as a created knowing, I do not know God, or anything. In the very act of not knowing, I have come upon knowing. In this pure Embrace, only Love, I neither have God nor do not have God. God is not and is, and I have been immersed in this is not, so to know this is. That I have left God means God pulled away from me, so I have come upon God beyond God. This I do not know, and I am lost, thankfully. This is a death into Life, not my life, and my is and God is is one is.
