Somehow, This Key
Please wait briefly while audio loads.
My body is God’s place of delight
as His Spirit is mine.
I love the open spaciousness,
the naked sky of God,
He loves my pink flesh,
my ecstasy, my innocence,
my earthy peace.
How did this happen?
What event, what time?
God flows effortlessly
into my body
through open windows,
like a deep, free breath,
like a silent laugh.
God is loving me
for I am learning
to allow it:
to experience
what has always been true.
God is so free!
The prudish god died
and fell down
on his prudish little head.
Where did this huge,
robust laughter come from?
The Spiritual Artist,
ecstatic about His work—
a sensual feast.
Somehow, this key:
God is loving my body…
and my spirit is free!
