prayer of a believer

prayer of a believer
by azly rahman

believe in anything you wish to
in anything
in something
in nothing
anything that teaches you the beauty within
and shows you the kingdom you are to govern wisely
shown by you ... yourself
as Time evolves itself within you
begin believing in anything
privately
privately
privately
moving into intimacy with yourself
so that when you worship
you become the worshipper --- and the worshipped
like the dancer and the danced
the waves in the water
the self in your self
and when you have become good in believing what is
good in you
the human in your humanity
the love in your beloved -- you become lovers
you evolved
you and yourself
none should tell you how
none should know
no signs
no symbols
no house of worship should shroud your soul
from infinitesimal glows
you evolve
and evolve
and walk proudly
publicly
publicly
publicly
even like the sage siddhartha
with a begging bowl
with rumi and reason whirling as rhymes in you
like a sadhu
a wanderer in the wilderness
a prophet on wall street
a soul meditating on a mountain of light
away from the madness of civilization's plight
believe in anything you wish to
you are truth
evolving
creating meaning
in a world
where nothing can become everything
and believing makes you a being
every minute
every breath
evolving
a cycle
never ending
a circle
expanding
illuminating
