Credo
I believe ice cream
is best eaten.
I believe time flies
whether or not
you’re having fun.
I believe a dog
is man’s best friend
says little good
about dogs.
I believe politicians
when they are dead
several years
will cause little more trouble
but are still lying.
I believe food
is the root of all
menus.
I believe televangelists
love God
when He is on their currency.
I believe poets
are worthy of all praise,
free room and board,
an annual stipend
and tax free status.
I believe sweeping generalities
when I agree with them.
