a Dream, Caught

God asked me in my dream,
“What’s your dream for?”
I answered,
“ONEness”
I believed I saw His Smile.
Then along came Satan.
“Oneness?
Are you sure
you want to be
ONE like these?”
Then he showed me
all the refused of the world,
all the crime,
all the humanity’s error,
all the passion and desire,
all that gone wrong,
I cried, I screamed.
I woke up in sweat.
I looked at
the picture of Gandhi
next to my bed.
I heard a voice,
“I’ve been through
that before for you”
I whispered,
“Jesus?”
