Rev. Gerald Dillenbeck Poet Parallelismus Membrorum

Choosing Love

I feel victimized
by the commercial success
of what was once a silent,
waiting,
watching
for Emmanuel,
Allah WithIn Us

I wonder
when I become red-faced angry
about not being able to CONSERVE
sufficient power to have my sacred way
right now

If this is entirely different
than when I feel disempowered by fear
of losing what
and whom
and when
and where
and why I have chosen
to love too LIBERALLY

Without restraint,
without constraint,
without greed,
without ego-aggrandizing need

Without anthro-privileged boundaries
to loving
divine embrace,
warm
humane grace

PeaceFull face 
of sacred EarthTribe,
Divine Beauty,
Humane Unity,
hypostatic Integrity.
