The Perfect and Restorable Alabaster Mind

			A 
			Pure,
			White,
			Clean
			And round sheet -
			Is my mind.

			In the centre is enthroned the Lord -
			And he keeps this sheet flat
			So that any may approach him
			Through me.
			If it were not for him
			This sheet would be crumpled -
			Mountainous -
			Making it impossible to reach the centre.
			But now it is flat and pure -
			As long as I keep him always in mind,
			And am rewarded with his peace, 
			Love 
			And patience.

			As each person approaches -
			It does not seem as encroachment -
			And they are not judged -
			They are loved.
			They may tramp around
			Leaving sullied footprints -
			But as I forgive these wrong-doings
			They are cleaned off to leave a pristine surface once again.

			This sheet extends beyond my physical self -
			Enticing others
			Towards the peace which encompasses me -
			Towards the only one who gives this soul beauty.

			Come and go as you please -
			However much you crumple this sheet
			I shall always forgive you.


			...would it be
			that this was true of me -
			i shall ever pray...
