god painted himself
as a bouquet
celebrate
mourn
you decide
god is your cause
you are your own cause
two causes
one you
time to reach an agreement
to cry
to complain
to dream of salvation
ridiculous
to transform yourself
wonderful
live by god —
and you will be saved
live otherwise —
and you are doomed
your zigzag
may end
before 2038
god needs no intermediary
no self-portrait
no portals seals or altars
god needs peace
but man needs symbols
begin with the parabible
