God fearing
dog eared and
hard bitten,
used up and chewed.
I allude of course to myself,
but God fearing?
good God above
one does not fear love
I expect this was explained
by theologians at the
seminary
to which I wasn’t invited
imagine how delighted
that
I would have been to
have sat in and maybe
set the scene
for
further discussion
perhaps they think
I’m a Russian
or worse
an atheist.
