Artful Excursions<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Powers That Be
\nConjured
\na \u201cGod\u201d<\/p>\n

They Imagined
\nInvented a
\nRigorous Regimen with<\/p>\n

Commandments and Discipline
\nand Consequences
\nfor Failure
\nto Follow
\nInstructions.<\/p>\n

What If,
\nInstead,
\n\u201cGod\u201d Is
\nCreative Consciousness,
\nAll That Is,
\nWhose Only Regimen
\nIs Love<\/p>\n

Waiting To Be
\nDiffracted
\nInto Endless
\nPermutations.<\/p>\n

Permutations
\nDevised by
\nEach of Us<\/p>\n

Creators
\nInvited Into
\nThe Mystery,<\/p>\n

Propelled and Carried
\nby the Vehicles of
\nOur Imaginations.<\/p>\n

Our every Voyage
\nExpanding the
\nBoundaries and Depth of
\nAll That Is.<\/p>\n

This \u201cGod\u201d
\nWho Delights
\nIn Our
\nArtful Excursions.<\/p>\n

What If?<\/p>\n

Imagination\u2019s
\nFavorite Question.<\/p>\n
