where love once lived
in the heart of man
religion replaces it
god’s name now
a convenient pretext
humanity’s loss

Dear Sonya,
Thank you for this.
It is said, in some perennial traditions, that once God was a reality without a name, and that now it is a name without a reality.
We must walk on, stoop down, pick up what has seemingly been forgotten, and hand it forward. We must protect the sun. We must.
All good wishes,
robert
