There are certain disadvantages
to not believing in god
I remind myself grasping
and embracing are
not the same thing
but at some point one
turns into the other
for instance those people
who think they
were John Lennon in a past life
but still a charm
that works like a charm
in the wilderness that exists
out past the garden footpath
must be the the end
of the whole discussion
the sunflower
a bewildering eclipse overhead
the staggered majesty of
Douglas fir mountains
what are these
but swirls of light and matter
forms of that madness
which does no harm?
