A visionary poem I wrote some time ago inspired by my experiances of mental illness.

A journey through

Divine Madness!

Between my moments of darkness and despair, I discovered a God I know is there!

In revelations rapturous He was slowly revealed to me, till I fell asleep again and forgot His immediacy! In that forgetfulness I felt fear, but its intensity decreased as we neared ‘here’

and when I did re-remember Him each time He appeared more clear.

No words could I decide of His grandeur to describe, my god knows how much I’ve tried,

but I would liken Him to a child!

No idol in the ink for His boundlessness transcends the stars, and no power could the

limitlessness of His love put behind bars, He is here, near and afar.

If only my forgetfulness would forever fade, then through all the shit I wouldn’t have to wade.

Yet that seems to be the fate of our species, for like the alchemists taught the answer lies

in faeces! Yet as is willed it becomes divine, they will have a job on there hands with all of mine!

Wasted wishes and defiled desires, towards the darkness I was inclined, for once within in the

womb I was reclined. What the Gnostic’s call a demi-urge from it evolved, and the Earth

it seemed in 1972 began to revolve, as nothingness slowly began to dissolve, and in this world

I began to be involved!

Imperfection permeated everything that in it erupted, creation when complete was corrupted!

In ig-norance of its own blindness terrible things occurred, they are so obvious we

shall not here to them refer. Lost in a labyrinth without limits that reason lengthens leaving

us limp, born condemned to death in whose sea we sink. Yet there we find no promised of repose,

just a fire that with fury roars, whose thunderous wrath does us entirely enclose!

Melting away the mistakes in its might, and all evil dissolving that comes within its sight.

Unmasking illusions and revealing what is real, what no one or thing could ever conceal.

To which what is left and pure rises, its essence still entire which is something that surprises,

as is Heaven which with its holy abundance it entices.

For in death and its lack of darkness I came back with continuity, not sure if once was enough

to make sure of my purity, and make my intimations of Immortality a surety!

Even on though through still more shit, till the button right on the head I hit, and to be before
