Multiple choice

rhyming quatrains iambic tetrameter

Multiple Choice.

 

I must confess I find it odd.

That priests who claim to speak for God.

Cannot agree apparently

And that is what confuses me.

 

I really find it rather strange.

That they see fit to re arrange.

The rules their prophet left behind

To something far less well defined.

 

They all eschew simplicity

 in favour of complexity.

The message loses clarity

and leads to the disparity.

 

So many brands of piety

Infinite in variety.

It’s obvious not all are true

Which one you choose is up to you

 

I’ll stick to my opinion.

Don’t place my faith in anyone.
I need no intermediary

 to come between my God and me.

There is a forward looking drama about your work. I love this because I'm getting close to my end and it really is confussing to listen to others about what I should be doing with my life. This is humoris and yet fulfilling at the same time. I would laugh if not for the crying. Your work is again floowing and in great imagery. I fill this is a small part of a bigger work. Maybe you should keep this aside and see if it fis into something else you are working on. Believe me this is that good. Great job and thanks.
