After 50 years of evangelical prison
and two years of freedom
I can finally see
the sun warms my face
No more supposed to's
and guilty penance
for wrongs done
in my life and somehow before
Religion is the filthy rag
trying to wipe clean
a clear window
leaving streaks of confusion
Doing right, because it's right
doing good, because it's good
being love, because of love
we don't need sermons or books to tell us this
We can all see
theology won't help you
religion won't make it more clear
just open the window and crawl through
pop's poetry
