There Is Only One Journey

Every living freak is here and now
Every direction, every path, every dream 
Leads directly to right here and now

The killer, the rapist, all the monsters
The mother,the father, the good son
Via poverty, sickness and sorrow
Via joy and love and enlightenment
All come to their knees here and now

They knell at this our only alter
With the sickly, the poor, the lame
Those blessed by beauty, strength and charm
All of us whether we are marching or crawling
Give homage to this very present moment:

For beings charged with light
There is only one journey -
From life to life!
