Notes About The Poem

Zany Zest

Knower of truth visited not the church,
          for he was worn weary
      of sermons leaving heart in lurch
                    by words dreary.

He was not an atheist since he knew
          truth of soul’s existence,
      feeling bliss beats within renew;
                    love’s insistence.

Rebel, a nerd, he followed not the herd,
          aligning with God’s light
      that glowed within as chakras whirred,
                    by day and night.
