Cosmic Conundrum<\/strong><\/p>\n

Don\u2019t Be
\nMisled
\nby
\nwell intentioned
\nPriests
\nin Tight White
\nCollars and
\nInDoctrineTainted
\nRobes,
\nConstrained by Fear.<\/p>\n

Who Imagine a
\nDistant Deity
\nDemanding Kneeling
\nWorship and Obedience.<\/p>\n

Who has Fashioned
\na Will for You
\nto Ferret Out and
\nBind Your Self to,
\nLest Your Life Be
\nLost.<\/p>\n

Arise,
\nBrush off Your Knees,
\nBent by Prayer, but
\nSoon To Be
\nBent by Dance<\/p>\n

When You Feel
\nYour Heart
\nIn Rhythm to the
\nDelicious Drumbeat of
\nThe Truth:<\/p>\n

The Love and Light
\nand Laughter
\nthose Priests called<\/p>\n

God
\nWants You
\nTo Be
\nExactly Who
\nYou
\nMost Want
\nTo Be.<\/p>\n
