The scholar priest wrote,
“Good, Christians, please take note.
We could learn from a native tribe
…that land cannot be owned and
Spirit you cannot divide.”
So, why are there turf
wars over turf
leading up to the surf?
The surf belongs to No One,
the Undivided One,
but the sand is like
diamonds in the rough
and everyone
is a prospector
who stakes a claim, “It’s mine;
your own diamonds
are yours to find.”
And so, it is noted,
spirit is divided,
but Spirit remains one
and perhaps the
hunter/gatherers really won,
because what we have done
is certainly sin
against The One
who is not divided
while we unravel and come
undone.
