Won't you help support DayPoems? AgnotheistBy William Brendan McPhillips21st CenturyAbsurd I say, to shove us all in bed Agnostics, atheists and others fled From arguments of which and what a text Reveals of gods, instead of prophets vexed. The trouble is the seer sees the way An inner world is fashioned day by day And then to reckon reason for a flaw Imagines we are bound by what he saw. Mortality is what It's all about. The hymns and prayers and rules and all the shout Are calculated to extend the span Of what we know and love and never can; And all that rends the mind and moment will Create a deeper void for us to fill.
