Big Mac

The unconsciousness of man is the consciousness of God. - Thoreau

Tondal's Vision by Hieronymus Bosch

you say you know me

you haven't the slightest clue

the only one you really know is jack squat

and that's not saying a lot

put on my tight, worn shoes

try to walk a while

i doubt you'd even make it a handicapped mile

not in this gutless war zone

this polluted mecca

this enclave of self pity

this stinking, sinking city

there isn't even any wood or nails to fashion a cross

but at least i know who's the boss

you can't order him at the drive thru

if you try, please be aware that he comes with a secret sauce

Author's Note

"It is remarkable that almost all speakers and writers feel it to be incumbent on them, sooner or later, to prove or acknowledge the personality of God. Some Earl of Bridgewater, thinking it better late than never, has provided for it in his will. It is a sad mistake." - Thoreau
