One verse to savor (from “Songs of Faith in the Year After Next”):
”VI
Between the wanting and the getting
We lose our hair and hope in fretting;
So, when we get, the thing we’ve gotten
Is, so to speak, less ripe than rotten.”
An interesting mixture of humorous, satiric verses and long, rambling musings on life, religion, love and more. S
