MY GOD

by Joanna Gilman Hyde

Barrington Passage 3:50pm

My Private God

is Public Now

ANYBODY CAN SEE HER —

The Beautiful Dark Haired Woman

with An Orange Blossom

at Her Left Ear

She came to Me

after a fight with The Big Guy

Who was trying to get Me

to serve Him:

I declared to Him

“I will not serve God —

I will NOT — I will

serve only My Self!”

& then I realized I was

THE MOST SELF-ISH PERSON

IN THE WORLD —

to be called to serve God

& to REFUSE

only to serve My Self?

And that’s when My Own God appeared —

Her Beautiful Dark Head

protruded from My Right Shoulder

as if I had two heads

She spoke the most melodious words

I had ever heard —

ANYBODY CAN HEAR HER:

“You know The Meaning Of Life

and so You are a Star,

so go to sleep”
