It's the mad saints that interest me, the holy fools of the Divine Mystery. Ikkyu. Ezekiel. Buddha. Jesus. Lao-Tzu. The ones where their lives turn upside down, just because they walk a path against the flow of convention. A holy fool laughs a laughter that cuts through all the ******** and hypocricy. A laughter that rises from the heart, And enters the heart of another like a small spark before a wild fire.
