Wherever ego do you go?

passage from the chapter "Fast Food Salvation" from my new book, Love's True Home.

I am Sri Ego.
I know it all!
I am the door to truth so don’t interrupt!
Listen to me and do as I say!
Buy my book and dvd.
Follow my 96 rules to enlightenment.
Where is my lunch? I’ve been perched on this pedestal for hours and my butt is killing me.
Don’t ask such stupid questions.
Will you ever learn?
Repeat after me, “Sri Ego, Sri Ego, only through you can we go.”

Author's Note

If a teacher, counselor, guru, instructor, leader of any profession or spiritual teaching acts as if he or she knows it all, chances are they know very little. Boot! Next!

This is very true and there is enough of a rebel in me to either walk out the door or slap them in the face after enduring a whole day of crap like that. This poem speaks whimsically about how egotistical people can be. I laughed but at the same time cringed and wanted to scream in rebellion about being over powered and treated like an imbecile. Great write for provoking emotions and thought.

I like this poem. It is bad manners not to feed the Sri Ego his lunch on time. Great story in this short poem. I needed a laugh this morning. Thank you for the excellent poem.

Oh, this is so funny and well, likeable. You are a hoot; your personal picture tells it all; it reminds me of Dog on the bounty hunter

HaHo,
Ennit! One time in my younger years, I would go around My Hocak Island and hunt those like me who take advantage. I was ruthless and extreme. In my life everything is extreme. Those who really know me would tell you that this is very true about me. I may sound like I hurt them physically. No, I would seek out who in the spirit world that is connected and dis-connect! Counting coup!
Brings a point that comes to my little mind. Right now in America, there is a legal case concerning a "plastic shaman" who has taken life! When you conduct a ceremony such as a sweatlodge ceremony, those who are there are picked by the Creator to be just there at that particular time.
Many of us know what happened to these poor soul's who ventured into a realm on our island. My brother, I have seen many things performed upon our sacred lands by druid's, devil worshipper's and the list is endless.
Now that Creation is in a self cleaning mode many innocent human beings will pay the price. Since human beings put value on everything! Action speaks louder than words! Is a very old saying. Life and Light to you and yours.
