Defacing the Devil | Skot Wers

W Chapter

W01

The reason that the cycle

Of reincarnation/karma

—Fate—

Seems inescapable

Is because we believe

That the world

Is happening to us

And not emanating from us

W02

May the Day

Be full of Light and Joy

May the Day

Enlighten the Way

W03

Amidst the senselessness

Of the loss of innocence

Heart woke up

Realized her Wings of Empathy

And expanded

The reach of her Touch

Unbounded by space and time

W04

Gazing upon the Tree of Life

The winged Heart is aflame

W05

One promise of the Stream

Is to gift Heart her Angel Fire

Her Spirit

The will to choose the Way

The other promise of the Stream

Is to gift Spirit his Peace

So he can share the Way with her

In Loving Grace

W06

Made the world

Then found it unsuitable

W07

In the end

Apathy and Perversion

Are all that’s left

W08

The ones that try to come

Are the Ones that overcome

So come

W09

You have to see

Your own forgiveness

For your sake

Not ours

“Ours,” meaning subdivisions

Of Self

W10

Changed the way that you feel

Changed the way that you see

The Miracle came

From darkness it sprang

And became the Poetry

W11

“It’s a Gift of sharing,”

Was said

“You have One to share”

W12

I will not feel guilty

For being in Love

Just because the world

Sees Love as forbidden

W13

Once it was asked

Who Heart could be

As she’s clearly not Jezebel

She is Forgiveness

Plain to see

She just needs to accept

That she’s Free

W14

At Peace

Beauty and Fascination Is

W15

One way to assert

That you’re the Child

The other to release

All that isn’t

W16

Trust

W17

Forgiveness is for you

To not feel guilty

For not carrying forward the past

W18

Judged the future’s past

W19

Nothing more than perspectives

On worldviews

W20

Sometimes we wake up

In the middle of the story

And decide

We don’t want it anymore

W21

Literal-mindedness is religion

Religion is literal-mindedness

W22

I heard my name spoken

Spoken to grab attention

Spoken by Grace

Spoken to remind

That Spirit’s ascent

To Revelation and return

Is meant as a Gift of Heart

For Heart

W23

Woke up

In the middle of the story

And realized that

Everything believed

Was wrong

W24

When Heart and Spirit embrace

Uninterrupted in the middle

Of the Running-in-Place Dream

The Miracle makes it fade away

To nevermore

W25

See?

You judged against it

W26

The Mother of Everything is right

You can have any world

Of your own choosing

You keep doing it

You always have

You keep making that choice

You’re right

Don’t be

W27

“You know what this is,”

Was said

“Allow it” and “Let it”

Were spoken at once

In One Voice

W28

New structures

New symbols

A new world of old

Begins to form

Just let go of it

You don’t need

To experience it

You don’t need

To know what it is

Just Be

W29

The toolbox is complete

W30

This is when we wake up

And graciously ask

To Know things

As they Truly are

And it’s granted

W31

Just Being Kind

W32

The Mirror Angel

Stated sternly,

“You’re going to have

To let go of it

All of it”

“But isn’t that a step?”

I asked

“It’s not a step

If it doesn’t go anywhere

Just let go of it”

W33

Everything becomes

What you judge against

Until you can see

Your own forgiveness

W34

Don’t fear relinquishing

What’s not really there

W35

The judgment makes the thing

The thing makes the judgment

W36

Appreciation

W37

It’s just a matter

Of how far one

Wants to go down

The rabbit hole

When everything

Is always the same

W38

After the transition

Everything’s new

So be kind and explore

As you learn how to Live

W39

Touch, Wisdom, and Insight

Are of the Gift

And are Knowledge of Love

W40

It’s time to Receive

And to Give

At the same time

In no time at all

W41

Eruptions of laughter

At the insanity of it all

W42

I accept the Gift of Grace

As my own to share

I share the Gift of Grace

As my own to give

W43

When you reach out in Kindness

Hoping to Touch someone

You have

W44

It’s not a step

It’s acceptance of what you are

W45

The first time I lived

I learned to live

Dispiritedly

The next time I lived

I learned to live

The mission of Spirit

The last time I lived

I became Spirit

I am

W46

Touch blooms into Magick
