Dogliness I would like for my perspective To be more prospective To see less retrospectively Than I have seen before I got behind then but instead Would like to look ahead I used to believe in dogmas But now in dogs I trust I thought it odd then how god was But now I know I must Have taken god mistakenly But what I lost I found In sibling hounds rolling around Together in the dust Two dusty dogs taught me to see Past dogmas of the past How to be here and now at last Within their dogliness The presence of their godliness Doggedly godly for The moment to be presently The present is for me Though I have been to be some more Better now than never Dogly undogmatically How to be the one thing I do better now than ever In spite of everything Steven Curtis Lance
