                                                      ­    ( upon reading WOLF SPIRIT 's
                                                              ­BLACK CAT PARANOIA )

••

And I was sitting on this chair

And above me to my left

Was this SHINNING !
( which I knew as GOD !)

And below me to my right

Was this grotesque shape

( this UGLINESS ! )

which I came to think of as

MY FELLOW MAN

••

I turned toward GOD and the glowing light

HE stared straight ahead !

I turned toward the hideous shape !

It was disgusting

But as I did so

GOD turned toward me

/////

I thought :

Why am I looking at this lowly creature when
I could be looking at GOD ?

But as I turned toward HIM
He turned away !

So I turned back toward the man
And again GOD turned toward me

And then the ugly thing turned toward me
AND SMILED !

I was amazed !
( it was a lovely smile )

But then I realized that he wasn't smiling
AT me

But was smiling THRU me at GOD

who was smiling THRU me toward the man !

/////

And the longer I held the gaze of the man

The greater was the light !

The greater was the love !

//

And then I turned toward GOD

AND HE DID NOT TURN AWAY

BUT HE SMILED AT ME

AND I TURNED TOWARD THE MAN

AND HE WAS NOT GROTESQUE ANYMORE !

••

and the Light exploded and filled my body

And there was no difference between

GOD

ME

and the MAN

•

And I awoke

and even an idiot like me

Knew what it meant

And the FEELING  is still with me

To this day

•••••

So

Let us all thank WOLF SPIRIT

for reminding us

Of our true nature

And who we really are
