“I Don’t Want God to Go Away”

Why anyone, who has seen the eyes of divinity would ever think that they should leave whatever space or place or mindset where they found it, to deny intrepidly that, without a doubt, they sincerely believe that they saw nothing out of the ordinary; no mysterious magic miracle meant to mean something to the eyes of wonder worn by children, full of mystic revelry; That there in this world with mind unmarred nothing surreal occurred; no mysterious light was seen which no one else could see: and (hold on) dismiss that which is in his view of the world which he verily sees, …and just … look away… is strange to me. Why would someone want to leave the presence and the peace of creation for some dream? What motivation could there be to dismiss reality …for some make believe world…   that, in which, magic things - do not - exist? I certainly cannot believe they’d look away intentionally… Not me!

Composed on or around 1/10/24

Some final thoughts of an addicted mind on communing with god through drug induced means… a last desperate effort by a mind seized to justify its toxic, self-destructive inclination by making it metaphysical. It was deceived.

The devil in the room

Wants to know if you can see him

Doesn’t believe that you can see

Wants you to see

Doesn’t care if you believe
