RECREATIONS OF A PLAYFUL UNIVERSE

Oh, how we laugh!

When Some Thing

Touches Our Spirit

Tickles Our Imagination

Recalling Our Place

In a Playful Space

 

A common enjoyment

Of a Common Enjoinment

Recreations

Of an Ever Present

Folding

 

Dynamic Boundaries

Pivotal Places

Incomplete Surfaces

That make distinct

But Never Discrete

 

Unique and Special Identities

Possibilities Realized

That Can Never Be Bettered

And can never be Severed

From a Context Within and Beyond

That Makes Us Content

Belonging Together

Adoring Our Differences

Inseparable in Our Incompleteness

 

Our Self-Insufficiency

That Unites Us in Love

A Receptive Space

A No Thing Place

That Keeps Us Coherent

Within and Without

Enveloped and Enveloping

 

No Need For Rules

No Need For Rulers

With Space in Our Hearts

To Include Other as Us

A Diverse Assembly

A Joyous Relief

Reciprocating Each Other’s Movements

Dancing in High Spirits

 

Oh, how we cry!

When Made To Deny

Our Union With Other

No Mother, No Brother

No Sister

To Assist

Our Passage

Through Pain

 

But a Father Severe

A Tyrant Authority

To Cut Us Off

Within Fixed Boundaries

In Isolation

 

Pretending Independence

Making Comparisons

Striving To Remove

What’s Not Good Enough

In Pursuit of Perfection, Control, Prediction

 

A rationalistic Ideal

A Uniform Whole

A Self-Sufficiency

Tolerating No Hole

No Breathing Space

No Place for Grace

 

Demanding Reproduction

More of the Same

A Perpetual Cloning

With No Room to Err

No Room to Wander or Wonder

 

A Solid Object

With Space Outcast

An Infinite Outsider

Offering No Possibility

Of Excitement or Joy

 

A Purified Presence

A Divine Right

Freed From Wrong

An Unreal Abstraction

Motionless

Emotionless

Random Disunity

Divine DisContent

 

A Need For Rules

A Need For Rulers

No Space in Our Hearts

To Include Other as Us

A Monoculture

A Dull, Flat Field

Where Conflict Abounds

 

So, For Heaven’s Sake, Father!

Take a Look at Your Wife!

Isn’t She Sexy?

Get a Life!

Be Your Self!

Give Us Guidelines, By All Means

But, Please

Don’t Hold Us Against Them

 

Stop Repeating Yourself!

Put Away Your Knife!

Or, at the very least

Make a Hole that Heals

And Recreates -

Lets Us Play!
