When We Accidentally Drove To Heaven

When we accidentally drove to heaven
My arms weren't raised.
Our speed was volatile; harmless.
Tapestrating over Maui's shafting light
Over broad and blush-green landscapes,
I felt the Name and the Face.
I asked, "Why can't I be happier?"
We drove out of heaven hearing a glowingness reply:
"You can do anything you want."

And I knew that was my answer to myself.
And when the spirit awakens me, I know that as well.
Delusion and the Eye of God are loving twins.

Debbie Guzzi January 22, 2009 at 6:21 PM Yup, I thought I got fried in a bug zapper the first time I tried to go for a visit. Didn't have spirit animals then, didn't have an invite & wasn't dead LOL. Became One for a milli sec and almost totally lost my umbilical cord to my real body. Stay out of the astral plan unless you know what you're doing!!!! Love Debbie
