The Third Step Prayer
God, I offer myself to Thee-
To build with me
and to do with me as Thou wilt.
Relieve me of the bondage of self,
that I may better do Thy will.
Take away my difficulties,
that victory over them may bear witness
to those I would help of Thy Power,
Thy Love, and Thy Way of life.
May I do Thy will always!
I have a dream-
To birth noble dreams
Of heaven into reality:
World agree
Unite together
As one in one moment
Look up to the sky
In almost perfectly
Timed unison
Expect nothing
But what already is
Heaven in a moment
Spent looking upward
Together as One-
An Earth-sky experience
Just a moment
Of planetary connection
Unfold an evasive truth
Ahead of us:
Create a dream
Live a dream
End a dream
Recreate a dream.
DANCE
The long and tedious moment
Seemed to last a lifetime
As I sat alone and cried.
I wish people would disappear
Just for a moment or two
So I can live my life alone
In solitude and solidarity.
Feeling through pain, hurt and loss
Would rejuvenate my laughter
And spark creativity.
We want what we don’t have.
We dream that to be better.
What I see in One will not change
What I see in the other.
I wish all the freeways
Would disintegrate into seeds-
Seeds of huge Weeping Willows.
I would climb those trees
And swing upon their branches.
I would make love to them.
I wish no walls or squares ever existed.
I wish the world was one
And if I looked outward
I would see a land of Godpeace and Earthbalance-
Full of forest, mountain, waterfall.
I wish all electricity and technology
Would just go away for awhile
So I can see the illumination of stars
And feel the language of Beautiful Earth.
Why can’t we put electrical outlets
Into Earthdirt floors and plug our cord
Into an energy source?
I wish I was alone, lying nude
On a grassy hilltop, gazing up at clouds
With near silence, trees and animals.
I wish to experience myself
Without unnecessary distractions.
I wish to make love to Mother Earth-
To constantly and passionately
Make love and love alone.
