THANKFULNESS OF A SINFUL MAN

i am not a religious man
one who pretends to be
better than he is

one who denies his baser side
and hides it under a big black bible

but i am a spiritual man
one who feels the beauty
of a power greater than himself

one who admires the symmetry
of the evolving universe

one who enjoys the pleasure
of a colorful sunset, a woman's love
or a good hot cup of coffee

i am not a teacher of men
or a patronizing paragon of virtue

i am only a sinful man
who especially at this time of year
gives thanks for god's gift of his son

the glad tidings are to all people
and that includes sinful men like me
