Ignoring ZAAC

But to answer your question HERB - I don't even consider this writing a poem really. I liked it for it's education aspect & reflective quality. But IMO there's nothing overtly poetic about it. I mean it's a wonderful essay or sermon for the common man or diatribe on religion v. spirituality or interesting opening statement for a thesis on monotheology - but it's not a poem. Just because you've chopped up some lines into stanzaic format doesn't make it a poem. It's prose and it's an interesting write, though I'm still not exactly sure what your trying to say or what type of knowledge you're espousing here... Sorry - but thanx for the sharing just the same.

Oh! One section I found incredibly interesting is your parable:
Quote:
(A Parable)
A young boy prayed each night for a new bike,
but nothing happened that he liked,
so he stole one and prayed for forgiveness,
while riding a new bike.

Twas an nice bit of introspective poetry inside the personal-interpretive prose lol...
