Once I thought
you were a goddess
who stood for the kingdom
of love and mercy.
Now I understand
you are a priestess
who stands only in ritual
for herself.
Once I believed you to be
the integral part of the miracle,
which of course we all are,
but which transcends
all of existance.
Now I understand:
You only allow the miracles,
to warp the minds
of the unlearned,
you take no responsibility
for the seeds that you sow.
Once I knew
that the heart center
at the center
of the center
was the center
of the center
of the center.
Now I understand
that only I see this way,
that only for some
is the heart the center.
Once I thought
that you thought this way.
Now I understand
that you don't.
