I got plenty religion, And a little is plenty for me. Don't got that gene That comes between Me and ecumenity. Most folks with plenty of sec'lar Got no lock on their door Nor a claim their sect Has got direct connect And exclusionary God rapport. I got no need for a door; Doors are not for me. I prefer rapport For all including me. Plus I fail to see a need For pushing one damn creed Because it's captured me. I got plenty of plenty Twenty-twenty is plenty for me. Got my cat, got my dog, Got a peach to impeach, And when he's gone, Maybe even liberty. * NY Times - 2/12/05 Nicholas D. Kristof - "God and Evolution"
