When Jesus said “Not my will”
He reached his highest effect
Inviting us to do same

:- Doug.

Unreliable
Perilous
—Relating—
Nor density
Nor duration
Nor surveyed
Only met

:- Doug.

Our chapter is the middle of the story.

:- Doug.

You are really heard
It really mattered
That’s what humans do

:- Doug.

Let us work
that ours might be the way
every way holds consummating
every consummating
eternally preluding

:- Doug.

Emerging
We bring something new to birth
—Creating—
Meeting:
Holy

:- Doug.

Holy:
Wholly present and same
To the holy our claim
Distributed, far from diffuse:
Whole

:- Doug.

We are living
Within
Living moving breathing

:- Doug.

Perhaps approach this other person and say I was hurt. Be available. Be present. Offer and welcome.

:- Doug.

What could the next chapter be? I can be warm and open and conversational. I can meet with my whole being open. Vulnerably. No goals, no treating others as It. Only as Thou.

:- Doug.

We hold divinity
In the palm of our hand
Releasingly or suffocatingly

:- Doug.

To Walt, body is soul
To me, human-kind and God
Adjectival
Modifying the moving
Breath

:- Doug.

adjective
not substantive
G
human-kind
same stuff

:- Doug.

I say G and human-kind
are not equal
but the same

:- Doug.

Saying nouns equal spirit/adjective
is a difficulty
when we see clearly
humans and G
same substance

:- Doug.

Is this Heartland or Hateland?

:- Doug.

The will to meet
—the grand will—
is all that’s needed
ways and means—fate’s tools—puny beside
destiny stands in need of meeting

:- Doug.

There are no words. Humanity is ~.

:- Doug.

Humanity may be God in the raw, in gestation, in coming into being.

:- Doug.

Well then, what have I seen, what do I need to say, what is my truth, no backing away from it?

:- Doug.

Humanity is meeting

:- Doug.

Let us write lists of our dying
Things important even significant
Dare to see the larger
Maybe it will be poetry
Our life as poem

:- Doug.

All is moving
Turning
You are here to turn

:- Doug.
