and help

Theology for Anyone


Theology for Anyone

Too many things
To think about
What is
Simply
Out there
Anymore

What might be simple
First
In here
And show the way

The poet
(I have mentioned this)
Taught me about the Amish
Person
Who was asked
Are you saved to heaven
To which
The faithful person said
I hope so

Not doubting so much
As to be humble
And to be prodded
All the time
To serve
And remember who is
Served

And what did
Jesus say
About the sheep
But
You may come in
For helping me
Because
I was the thirsty
And the naked
And the lonely

While you goats
(poor goats
for a metaphor)
Must stay outside
And go to
Frankly
An awful place
Or maybe
Nothing
Philosophically

Simply enough
Perhaps
That is
Live well
And for each other
And who is my neighbor
But
Anyone in
Need
While we have the means
And typically we have
To use

Help each other
Which I guess means
Take the help
As well

Simple enough
