A Divine Collect

How can we insure

with each passing year, we’ll grow

wiser, more compassionate?

~

We must be like gods:

hearts open, desires known,

from ourselves no secrets hid.

Common Profit?

Tell me, my poet

friend, do you think folks mostly

do the best they can?

~

Good folk do their best,

but greedy folk make their buck

at the cost of all the rest.

The Truth Is Out There

If it is true that

time will tell, does space join in

and reveal all too?

~

Neither space nor time

are tabloids or worse, Fox News!

Gentlemen don’t kiss and tell!

Cutting Critique

When ignorance is

bliss becomes the foundation

of belief, what can be done?

~

You can quote Occam

to the closed minded fools,

but his razor will miss them.

Faith not Religion

What can the world’s faiths

teach us when they seem at such

odds with each other?

~

They may speak their truth,

these Rabbis, Imams and Priests,

but true faith, dwells within.
