Unclothed

... it's much easier
to spin the prayer-wheel of naked soul, virtue
is difficult
unless you undress
to lie fully with the sacred harlot of 
wisdom, for
it is hard to untie shoes for the bedtime of vision
in the closet of dogma unlit by love...

* * *

... neither dogma nor creed, but
life, itself, my scripture...bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb
