Trust

I spoke to one, years ago, of the hymns

my dad sang on his last night on Earth

they had the nerve to correct me

said Dad’s hymns meant nothing

he must just have been delirious

told me they knew much better than I

that my father did not sing for joy

because he did not see Jesus coming

to take him with Him to his home

I speak to some, now, of other things

and feel much the same as I did then

when people I do not trust tell me

people I do trust cannot be trusted

since they’ve not done their research

they don’t know we’re in a conspiracy

and I think again, as I thought then

how can these know better than all

what is and is not to be believed
