I try to obey God
Full of hope and the shimmerling
The one that dances from flower to flower
The little cub that rests in my arm
For me with my dreams and obstacles
For me I will not let it fall
Because what happened was too cruel
I've seen them and I've heard them speak
It makes me very angry
I'm so angry I'm very thoughtfully continuing
Continuing to do this thing
This thing that makes them so angry
This substance of being alive
Precisely because it makes them angry
Precisely because they are wrong
Because cruelty finds no harbor here
And it never will
Because if they want to smoke they can go outside
And because of books in libraries
Because dandelion clocks just want to get blown away
Because dinner mints are special
Because evildoers never prosper
Because the little are the blessed
Because
Just because
In Jesus' Name,
Amen
