    Damn sweet unique is what you are

     

     

    Do you ever in a quiet moment

    get smacked by the

    WEIRDNESS of being here?

     

    Don’t be afraid.

    I see you as You Are.

     

    No quality

    no achievement

    no appearance

    compares in the slightest to

    THE MYSTERY

    of your existence, of your being real.

    Here: on a planet,

    poured from a luminous milk bottle of stars

    set on the soft black cloth of

    a uni-verse stitched with a

    hundred

    b i l l i o n

    galaxies

    in which you can’t be lost

    because HERE YOU ARE,

    Found.

     

    Your existencewhen you notice—

    is a sublime opportunity

    to be stupefied

    into

    GLORY.

     

    No quality

    no achievement

    no appearance

    could ever compare with, yes—

    the w o n d e r  of you.

     

    Rush awake from bad dreams

    in which you are not admired by the heavens as

    DAMN SWEET UNIQUE.
