Thoughts on Faith

her t-shirt said “Faith”and there was
an image of a wooden cross.
but what is it we really have faith in?
a story.

faith is funny.
people believe in a good story
and some stories more than others.
but who is to decide my faith?
yours?
anybody’s?

you could have faith in Disney.
I could have faith in a guitar.
at least I can hold it in my hands
and make something beautiful.
