Works of Heart<\/strong><\/p>\n

All due Respect to
\nMichelangelo,
\nbut if He\u2019s Reincarnated
\nas a Ceiling Painter,<\/p>\n

I Pray His Next
\nPaint Job
\nWill Be on
\nThe Wall of
\na Dancehall,<\/p>\n

Showing our Maker
\nwith a Big Grin
\non Her Face,
\nBumping Fists
\nwith My Main Man,
\nTom Robbins,
\nwhen
\nThe Jitterbug Perfumer
\nwent Home
\na few months back.<\/p>\n

Enough with the
\nDeep Solemn Face
\nFingerpoint Touching.<\/p>\n

I Mean, Seriously . . .
\nNo, Not Seriously . . .<\/p>\n

This Is
\nThe Same Maker
\nWho Showed Up
\nin This Lifetime<\/p>\n

As Fractals of
\nHer Love and Light and
\nLaughter Self,<\/p>\n

Lighting Up As
\nThe Likes of
\nRobin Williams and
\nGilda Radner and<\/p>\n

George Carlin.<\/p>\n

Do Your Self
\na Divine Favor and
\nStop
\nSeeing Our Maker<\/p>\n

as Separate from
\nHer Divine
\nWorks of Heart.<\/p>\n
