Today I am sitting,
breathing
in the now
and
exhaling the whys
and
legalistic wherefores.
I
am not interested
in
chapter and verse,
the
codex of Babylon
or
the Magna Carta shuffle.
I
watch jays and cardinals,
who
seem to have forsaken
philosophy
and vows
for
the freedom of flight.
I
drift from the park bench,
escape
the clawing of trees
and
their Biblical verses,
and
find heaven on the wing.
I
don’t need an amen.
