Your local anarchist.
Here is a poem I wrote a couple years ago when I first started exploring and practicing Buddhism (as a Christian).
HOW FOOLISH IS THE SAGE?
HOW IS HIS WORK SO FOLLY?
FOR HE HAS REACHED UNITY WITH THE TRUE SELF
TO THE EXTENT OF HIS ABILITY
PERSONAL CULTIVATION THROUGH MEDITATION, PRAYER, AND STUDIES
HE SITS IN THE LOTUS
WHEN THE LOTUS OPENS
ASSURED OF HIS FOOTHOLD, HE YELLS
“DELIVER ME FROM THE DANGEROUS STRAITS OF THE BETWEEN, AND CARRY ME TO PERFECT BUDDAHOOD!”
AS THE LOTUS SHEDS THE WATER ON HER LEAVES
SO DOES SHE SHED THE FOOL
HE ETERNALLY DESCENDS IN THE STRAITS OF THE BETWEEN
ONLY THOSE WHO CALL ON THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST WILL BE SAVED
Thanks for reading
