Rabbi Bo said "I don't believe in God, I know there is a God!"
I said its all the same. Nuance splits the hairs of dead dogs
who then returns to their vomit "I believe in God, but
I don't know anything" - that's Platonic wisdom - If
you know you're foolish then you can laugh
at your repeated folly like spitting out all
these words in search of meaning
"in the beginning formless and
empty water covered
everything"
That's contradiction,
the spirit hovered over and
then the unit of creation was
"cloven asunder" like the separation
of liberation and surrender, Iblis & Yeezus
say "One good God is worth a thousand Houri's"
Glory be to that beyond all names - If I were there
I wouldn't have bowed to Adam either, pathetic mud
creatures with eyes like barriers, if I had omnipotent power
I'd build a tower or construct a ladder from earth at the
center reaching up to the heavenly house of pleasure
and spend eons in raucous babel with my Creator
and William Blake (we share a birthday) singing
who could/dare frame my fearful symmetry?
All Tyger's burn bright, us filthy animals
full of ego and a heart caught on fire
my nature is killing I'm killing my
nature my ineffable God
did I ever make you
laugh with me
through my
folly?
