word of God

I never speak of God
but people keep telling me about God
and they keep telling me:
This is the Word of God!
Or they brandish a Book before me
and they say:
This is the Final Word of God!

But I say:
Look, I've just had a Revelation;
God has just spoken to me;
it's the First and Final Message in One Word:
Love...
You see, there's only one Word of God:
Love...
and Love is unconditional
and you do not hate
and you do not kill, never...
That is the word of God, Love...
So take the Word of God: Love
and drop everything else...
So, there's just Love
and the word God is superfluous;
there's just one word, one reality:
Love
