Quasi-Religious
I’m
quasi-religious, but my faith is sure.
And quitting I’m
not, for I pray to endure.
But rites and
routines
Make pilgrims
machines
And likely, no evil
may cure.
My queries
continue, but answers exist.
I pound and I pray
and I even insist.
But welcomed am I
With a patient
reply,
For He’s never my
questions dismissed.
