How to digest the Power of Spirit
When there is such a hungry Ghost
Knocking on the Breath of Being
Asking for an answer to lead you out of this place

Knocking with such force on the door
Of the soul as it sits watching
the pictures that spin into the totality of more
than just a moment in space

Who holds up the mirror to your life
For the world to see the emptiness
Of a picture reflected by just a part of the whole

Held there by some need that was called on to be heard
And so this invisible became visible
And we choose what we wish to expose
Of the light particles dancing round the universe

Until we hide ourselves in the nakedness
That life demands to see
Until we find that slipstream you have
 that brings us to eternity.

And the heart that was hidden spins into being
And the ultimate secret waits for the time to reveal
And the  chorus sings along to our song
And gives us the cliché of a reason for what must be done

And the hungry ghost dines at the last supper and waits
For the toast to the love that was found in our life
and what it brought to us and what part of us  still pays
for the rights to the movie and how the world will see
that it really is time to set this ghost free

and so with a breath and a bow to it all
we offer our gratitude to God
 and hear the knocking  and heed the call 
and we open the door to the one waiting there
and find it’s just the Presence of  God’s spirit
and love coming for our heart  after all
