What Should We Believe?

I feel envy from those who believe; Those who see without a doubt, For they know not the way to grieve: To wonder what this is all about. For I see and ask why and do not agree, With the regurgitation of answers: Convoluted and senseless pleas, To bow down to obey the cancers. All I see is but another question, Begging timelessly in helpless spit, Avoiding the drool of helpless obsession: How can this godless sh** be it.

This poem seems to point in the religious direction; but could actually be referring to a few things. If it is indeed a real state of being I hope you find the answers you seek. Take care Brendan

My cousin told me once when her brother died, my card was her favorite. I had written death is "witty" but substitute sh in the w's place. She said she could not stop laughing, and she saved it.

Hi Caren, I love the story, but I really wish that I knew how my poem inspired you to tell me it. Thanks for the comment though!

Hello Brendan, so here am I.. I know God is.' It used to be sort of like groping around in a dimly lit tomb..LOL) I mean't room but you guessed that I guess.? So I am one now, anong others that ( cannot deny Gods existence ) I undestand better now the teaching, blessed are they that have 'not seen yet beleive' I hazard the better term to be 'carefree' as with the disciples They were given much, so much more Is expected'
