Pick one, or not:

Dear God,
Dear God!
Deer-God

These are not the words of a calypso
The Gods do not exist
But that is no reason
To not take advantage
Of the evolved masterpieces inspired
By their not-presence

The best religion is the one
With the best lies.

Fairyland

The foma that bring peace of mind:

The majestic, poignant music
The cathedrals, spectacular sky masonry
And compulsive forgiveness, to name a few.

So I will not close the Book,
Will not follow directions
I will keep a Cat’s Cradle in my pocket
And take it out occasionally
Look at it and smile, meaningfully,
And then continue on my
busy, busy, busy way.
