I believe
In the shameless love of this life;
Not in a previous or afterlife.
I don't believe
In reincarnation, transmigration
Ascension or decesnsion.
And all the sepulchres concur.
I believe in Christ,
Not Christianity or Protestantism.
I believe in Muhammad,
Not Islam
(And this list goes on) .
I don't believe in banshees,
Astral projection or any OBE.
I don't believe in gnomes or trolls,
Elves, sprites and witches,
Nirvana, Valhalla, Heaven or Hell.
And I believe
I won't be disappointed.
I believe in politics,
Not politicians.
I believe in the Arts
(All of them) ,
And humanity,
And You,
The healers and teachers.
Oh Spirit,
Where is it?
I don't believe hovering souls
Listen to eulogies.
I don't believe in death-bed conversions
Just because...
I believe in a living consciousness,
For
I Am That I Am,
And that's what I am.
I will not go gently,
For I know,
There's nothing
To worry about.
