#2421 -- writing my bible

 

2421

7.228

18.viii.26

writing my bible

for godsbother

 

today again

 

it is a private and personal thing

 

you might notice me scratching away

 

it’s between me and the pages

 

almost all the words bequeathed

though now and again

by lip, by breath, by tongue

some tooth and nail

entrails read

 

it has own way, truth, light

they all do

 

pictures are off the wall

 

one finds oneself getting grateful

forming up a prayer in the air

inspired!

 

I’m nobody too

so unobserved

 

all original material

handmade, on the day, on the spot

 

if over my shoulder someone takes a look

they’re sure to look away

 

it’s a kind of a guide to the lives I have lived

and all I cannot know

 

it grows from an uncertainty

pictures of any world will

 

vision something to cough up

 

blow trumpets, ring bells, bow low

 

my belief is anyone can open their eyes

 

one wishes to say --- everyone!  wake up!

 

a list of questions really…

 

and so we’re here again today

it’s been a struggle to keep it this way

but mine’s an open book
