Pinhole of God

Better part of a lifetime

I've been separate,

a person apart,

always compared, wanting

to be the same as..

but not, same as...

I want to be different yet

fully accepted

Compelled from someplace within me

I'd face the fear of shame and

the fear of rejection

and the more I 'fit in' regardless

the more unique I became

And the more unique I'd become

the more alone I am

the more aloneness I accept

the less separation I perceive

When I surrender beyond the fear

of hell and damnation

I find there is only God

and we are each the pinholes...

the eyes and ears

and hearts peering into

and participating in Life

And here, all the time, I feared

I was 'not enough'

when always I Am No Thing

but a pin hole--an aperture

as well as That Light shining through
that floods the eye of God
