Thank goodness

For the discipline

Of fire and cloud

And water

And the path

The faithless wonder

x

There is a promise

When we forget

There is a promise

x

There’s prophecy

To mingle with

What is before us

In contention,

All the other parts

That make up everything

x

The everything we know,

The things we must

Believe in anyway

Sometimes from apostacy

Of fact,

Worse from the inside

Out

x

Before external judgment,

We sentence ourselves

For lack of faith

When, reasonably,

How much is there to believe in?

Evidence of what’s unseen–

Thank you,

Says our agnostic

x

The normalcy

Of matter and dimension

Fairly

Imposing,

Building what we stand on

For belief

And unbelief

x

The believer is the doubter

x

We go through this,

We are this

x

Often there is more of us

On the other side

Of chrysalis
