REVISED STANDARD
This we have lost:
free will, the
a priori.
We cannot sayan hour
the sun stood still,
sing Glory.
Yet our fathers are kept alive
in
us all.
By insulated entrails
Belzhazzar computes.
Weare reluctant to die.
Men for governments and good causes
keep count
Ezekial shoots the sky.
So what if only nuns and Baptists
believe in miraculous birth
we have not lost our fathers.
They are with us always in love
to the end of the earth.
Miller Williams
