LOOK AT ME THE TOAD
———-
________________________________________
———-
in a chaotic world:
—–
one toad sits on a lily pad insisting:  “what I want
—–
what I say what I think what I know what I do
—–
where I go…I I I…ribbitt…
—–
another toad sits on another lily pad insisting:  “what I
—–
want what I say what i think what I know what I do
—–
where I go…I I I…ribbitt…
———-
__________________________________________
in a humble world
—–
to sit on a lily pad, desiring nothing, saying nothing,
—–
thinking nothing, knowing nothing, doing nothing,
—–
going nowhere….yet in stillness praising God…
—–
to sit on another lily pad, doing the same as on
—–
any lily pad….yet in stillness praising God…
———-
___________________________________________
in a real world
—–
to jump amid lily pads, carrying no thing in body
—–
in soul, yet praising God…basking in God’s truth,
—–
God’s goodness, in all things, in body and soul.
—–
oh, yes, and to attend holy mass with your brother,
—–
not your dog…the priest is not allowed to give to beasts
—–
communion in the Lord…
—–
instinctive spirit is animal spirit of beasts, entertaining to
—–
both men and beasts.
—–
contemplative spirit is holy spirit in God, entertaining no
—–
person, place, thing or beast, and reverently serves the soul’s
—–
path to Almighty God.
