Welcome

Primitive religion is not believed, it is danced!

Arthur Darby Nock

Earth's crammed with heaven,
And every common bush afire with God;
And only he who sees takes off his shoes;
The rest sit round it and pluck blackberries.

In the Dirt

in the dirt he knelt
the servant of all
prepared to wash unwilling souls

no pride
no false humility
just love

what is it about being washed
that is so scary?

what is it about washing that is so
demeaning?

that we should sit in frozen pride
and hide our feet

let us scrabble in the dust
washing
and being washed

let us be real and earthy

I have no illusions about ending up white as snow
just truly alive
