random thoughts can come hard and fast

Post by saw » July 5th, 2011, 9:29 am

certainty for some
is an obsession,
even when they really can't be sure

supreme beings
rarely fraternize with mortals
they're afraid their star status might tarnish

skepticism seems a healthy enough diet
I see no real problems admitting
I haven't even the foggiest explanation either

since perhaps my doubts nourish my tolerance,
so many customs, traditions are fine in and of themselves
metaphysics, the unfathomable cosmos doesn't scare me

I've heard some say
don't be late for the J train
it's bound for glory

heard others say
blind faith
is much more than an average power trio

clapton, bruce, baker
carpenter, mason, candlestick maker
all plying their trades with religious-like fervor

spirituality lives in our work
it gives so many of us a handhold on the ledge
unemployment loosens our grip, one finger at a time.
If you do not change your direction
you may end up where you are heading

i suppose on a raining nite in the jungle- i have to confess- I see Creator every day- and the others= well they go for healing-truth is- it is already all in the works- i just am glad to have food and a roof over my head-aloha
reason is over rated, as is logic and common sense-i much prefer the passions of a crazy old woman, cats and dogs and jungle foliage- tropic rain-and a defined sense of who brings the stars up at night and the sun up in the morning---
