“We become strangers to each other”
```
We become strangers to each other
And also to our selves.
Our paths have strayed
Although we are together.
Friendly bonds grow
To become what they will.
A painful re-acquaintance is undertaken,
For we stand at the crossroads—
Of love?

Wedding Vows

Let us not talk about Love,
       Except for all Living Things.
Let us not speak of Marriage,
       Except to the Ideals of Peace
       And Freedom for All.
Let us not desire commitment,
       Except to One Earth.

Paths I, viii

Awakening to the morning sun
   We accompany the birds and sing
   Our thankfulness for light of day
   And render this our offering. . .
Humble gifts of selfless action
   Toward a world in harmony.
      While seeking love and brotherhood
      Along the dimly lighted way
      We cast aside evil for good
   Finding actual Reality.
The quest is made with devotion
   For the future Humanity
   To evolve its true Identity.

Floating on the Lake
```
Extinguish distractions
Lighting your mind,
Seek the answers
And food for thought
You shall find.

Searching your depths
Surpassing all time
Peace can be found
In life’s endless rhyme.

Paths II, iii
```
In His name, worshipping
Idols of mortal man,
We blindly march to war
Creating hell on earth
For faceless enemies
We’ve never seen before.

Paths II, vi
```
Revolution can be
The destructive process
Which will begin ending
Darkness’ fearful night
And show life’s direction
Toward cherished paths of Light.
