Guide me

Goddess, I see You in the Eucharist
And I see You in Sex
I see You in the cathedral
And I see You in the strip club
I see You in the nun
And I see You in the Whore
Guide me, Goddess
Am I deluded? Which is the real You?

My Beloved child
You are not deluded, my Beloved creation
You are saner than you have ever been
I am in All of those Things
For I am All things
You see Me everywhere
Because I AM everywhere
