Lately I forgot how crazy Ma is, so when my life got crazy I contracted&#xD;
rather than staying relaxed in the knowledge that it's all just my crazy&#xD;

    <summary type="html">The devotee of Kali is doomed,&#xD;
for the object of his devotion is mad,&#xD;
and a son takes after his Mother.&#xD;
&#xD;
My Mother exists in every being,&#xD;
from lowly virus to man.&#xD;
Priest and nun, pimp and hooker,&#xD;
and also the drive-by shooter.&#xD;
&#xD;
Why is he so different from me?&#xD;
We are both men with God in our hearts&#xD;
and a Mother to pull our strings.&#xD;
&#xD;
A Mother not the least bit sane.&#xD;
Would She be if She causes all&#xD;
those things that I see on TV?&#xD;
&#xD;
But She also causes me,&#xD;
and sustains me.&#xD;
She is the Essence of all that I see.&#xD;
&#xD;
Therefore I have concluded that my&#xD;
madness cannot be prevented.&#xD;
But it doesn't have to be a curse,&#xD;
if my Mother would grant my request.&#xD;
&#xD;
If I am going to become crazy&#xD;
let it be in love with Kali,&#xD;
like that Mad Brahmin at Dakshineswar.&#xD;
&#xD;
His madness rivaled even my Mother's,&#xD;
for he was Her favorite son,&#xD;
and their lila was Heaven on earth.&#xD;
&#xD;
If I could know one millionth as much,&#xD;
I would be deliriously happy,&#xD;
and this madness will be my salvation.</summary>
