I grew up in Christian fundamentalism, went to hell, came back, became a Presbyterian then a Buddhist Presbyterian, and now I'm a profane Presbyterian Zen Taoist -- not that I'm into labels or anything. Here's what I've learned so far: The more you know, the more you know you don't know.

:) I can't telling myself that!
Whippoorwill
Oh whippoorwill
Earth is the body
We inhabit
Subject to decay
No matter the will
Oh whippoorwill
No matter where we
Flock oh whippoorwill
Home calls us back
Implacable hate
From whoever embraces
Death as part of place
Stares us down and plants
Bombs to take us
Down oh whippoorwill
We who inhabit joy
And psalms oh whippoorwill
Cannot untie this knot
Against implacable
Night oh whippoorwill
Forgiveness will not help
