Casting out demons

When I consider how

the cause and effect

in all of this,

each flowing stream,

each footfall,

each sprig of early springing green

is Love,

it’s easy, then, to understand

that nothing is left out,

no demons needed

to guard the chasms,

to hold the terror

in some fierce and awful

bargain of control

No need for demons

and no need for hiding —

each loved idea walks freely,

centered, whole.
