Ruffling More Than A Few Feathers

The unconsciousness of man is the consciousness of God. - Thoreau

light all of your melted candles and play your dusty organ

that alone won't summon god

get down on your knees and humble yourself

stop being a fraud

you'll know he's with you

when you hear the wings of angels applaud

Author's Note

"God himself culminates in the present moment, and will never be more divine in the lapse of all the ages. And we are enabled to apprehend at all what is sublime and noble only by the perpetual instilling and drenching of the reality which surrounds us." - Thoreau

You don't have to visit church to find God. That is what I am picking up here Pete. How true that is. His work can be seen in the goodness of others. Those who put the well being of others first and foremost. Thank you for your poetry.
