I GROW WEARY
STUDYING RELIGIOUS TEXTS
STUDYING THE MINUTE DIFFERENCES
IN RELIGIOUS SECTS
AND WONDER
WHAT DOES IT MATTER
HOW MANY ANGELS
ARE ON THE HEAD OF A PIN
DOES IT MATTER
IF IT’S THE SHARP END
IT SEEMS SO MUCH
LIGHTNING
AND THUNDER
WHEN WE REALLY NEED
LIFE GIVING RAIN
I AM REMINDED
OF WHAT
MICAH SAID
He has showed you, O man, what is good.
And what does the LORD require of you?
To act justly and to love mercy
And to walk humbly with your God.
OR JOB
WHEN HE SAID
I rescued the poor who cried for help
The fatherless who had none to assist him.
The man who was dying blessed me;
I made the widow's heart sing.
I put on righteousness as my clothing;
Justice was my robe and my turban.
I was eyes to the blind
And feet to the lame.
I was a father to the needy;
I took up the case of the stranger.
I broke the fangs of the wicked
And snatched the victims from their teeth.
SOMEHOW
I THINK
THAT ALL THE TENETS
OF RELIGION
ARE MEANINGLESS
UNLESS THEY’RE BACKED UP
WITH ACTION
KNOWLEDGE OF THE TEN COMMANDMENTS
MEAN NOTHING
UNLESS I TRY
TO LIVE UP TO THEM
IF I AM REQUIRED
TO HONOR GOD
I DO IT BY HONORING CREATION
