Multitasking I noticed a Yahoo news story about the president, "Bush Dodges Questions About Rove or Something", had, minimized, been cut off to read "Bush Dodges Quest". I find this very stirring. Thrices me into different reaction packets, Protestant annihilating disapproval & sympathy for shared Peer Gyntiness & total skepticism of the idea of Bush as moral or decision-making entity.

Yahweh cannot be dismissed, though I do not trust or love him, because both absent and present he is indistinguishable from reality, be it ordinary or an intimation of transcendence.

I know where the invisible qualifiers to this are. But they are not disqualifiers. So:

May all I ever say and do be my reply.

The happy song we sang was wrong.

To make it right we made it long.

Though long and light it now was tight.

We fluffed it loose as well we might.

Now loose as goose's spread caboose,

We sharpened it, as too obtuse.

Our mother wit judged such a fit

Too fat and so we flattened it.

We hopped in slow and sacred woe

Namo once someone made it glow.

Though glowing from thumb, tum and bum

It needed noise to make folks come.

We clever boys sewed clanging toys

Along each marge to jingle joys.

What next? Enlarge it from a targe

To something we could row: a barge.

Big size, big glee, sharp, bright to see,

Loud, loose, flat, free! Just right, say we.
