Following Simplicity

 

Faith is not stupid

But it has to be gotten

(Be-gotten)

And owned by anyone

 

I can’t think of an

Authentic tradition

In the world of faith

That does not have

Its scholars

 

Faith is smart

With aspects of intelligence

That keep generations

Dealing in the finer

Points of interpretation

And practice

 

This work is nuanced

And important

But faith itself

 

Can be caught, cared

For, and grown

By anyone

 

For the blind can see

The deaf can hear

The lame can walk

The path can be traversed by

 

Whoever each is now

Whoever each is not

 

In fact, the less the better

To possess

On the way of faith
