Do not have faith
in stars and sunlight
and the face of your lover
in wind and waves
and the music of the birds
in berries and beer
and meals eaten with friends
in flowers and forests
and the air after a storm
in snow and sand
and the warmth of a fire
and your hunger for beauty
again and again
return to these things
They are cages for God
that capture only humans
FAITH IS IGNORANCE
And you are killing love
and truth and beauty
every time you speak his name
