GOD or GOD-NESS

....And Godness created Man
In its own like-ness.
Man in turn created "God"
In the image of his ego.

There it is....
The ultimate D.I.Y. slavery,
For whoever or whatever creates
Can destroy that which has been created.

When Man worships a god,
Man puts himself in the power of a man-made despot.
Look at all the madmen  who've ever gone to war in God's name.

Godness, however, has never been created;
From before the dawn of time,
It has always been.

The idea called "God"
Makes slaves of us.
A God has to be worshipped
And obeyed.

In "God-ness" we are the created,
And the creators.
God-ness is not worshipped,
But it can be acknowledged
(or ignored; that's up to you.

Godness is...
What we are,
Waiting to be remembered
When we wake up to ourselves.

Godliness shines forth in integrity --
Nothing missing.
