I don’t like the stupor of wine
I am the rock music
Of soul’s intoxication.
I love the soft murmurs
Of divine rivers
At the same time
Like Led Zeppelin’s song
Going to California.
My divinity is how
Life unfolds.
I would seek life
In its every mystery
In its every drenching rain
In its every stained heart
Or a muddied garden
Blessed with flowers.
I learn from art
That life is an art,
I learn from life that
Life is a conversation
With a divine being,
Under the shredded sky.
I would create divinity
From the day to day
Artistic endeavor.
