Sacrilege<\/strong><\/p>\n

If Man or Woman
\nMakes the Brazen
\nClaim that
\nThey Are,<\/p>\n

\u201cI Am\u201d
\nan Expressed
\nManifestation of
\nAll That Is,
\nThe Source
\nof Love and Light and Laughter,<\/p>\n

of a Piece with
\nGod
\nIs Me,<\/p>\n

They may be
\nIndicted by
\nThe Church of
\nTrue Religion
\nfor
\nIdolatrous
\nBlasphemous
\nSacrilege
\nIn the First Degree,<\/p>\n

Perhaps Sentenced
\nto Death
\non a Cross
\nor a Burning Stake.<\/p>\n

But What If<\/p>\n

the Real Sacrilege<\/p>\n

Is to Imagine,
\nto Preach, or
\nTeach,
\nor Judge,
\nor Love
\nwithin Conditions,<\/p>\n

That Anything
\nor Anyone
\nIs Other
\nthan Divine,
\na Beam of
\nThe Light
\nThat Is Forever
\nLit.<\/p>\n
