Question Yourself. Trust only
What others say about you
Johnny Beatific
Before sanctifying quantum mechanics,
Evolution, your religion of choice,
Dismiss these opinions, place them
On the back burner and turn up the heat.
Anything that makes sense
Put in a folder marked Pending.
Withdraw all your money and give it
To the neighborhood prophet, the one
You run from screaming each day.
Ask your youngest about the latest on afterlife.
Get your dog his slippers and paper.
Not the Times! He's got a pad on the
Pulse of a blue chip market.
When lunching in public, chew loudly, burp often.
Leave dinner for other functions.
For breakfast, give yourself a break.
When driving keep your eyes off the road.
When walking try your hands instead.
Open a door for the advantaged.
Tell the needy to do the same.
If at any point you find yourself
Laughing uncontrollably
Look for me.
I'm the one breaking bread
With Buddha, Groucho,
And Nietzsche the whimsical one.
