“And palmeres for to seken straunge strondes”
-Chaucer

Everyone is a palmer this holy day
Seeking the strange, elusive shores of truth
Each pilgrim bearing in his eager hands
A palm frond and a photocopied hymn

The pilgrimage begins in the parking lot
And marshaled by the blue HANDICAPPED signs
Ascends to the doors, the narthex, and in,
Up to the Altar, there where all worlds meet

Come to Jerusalem; you’re on the way -
Everyone is a palmer this holy day

the financial adviser
did advise Tom
not to get a credit card
as it would lead
to misery's maelstrom  

interest rates on credit cards
will break a credit card owners back
so it is strongly advised not to
venture down that track

Tom took the financial adviser's
sound advice
and gave the idea of being a credit
card user a shoulder of ice

Why do...
they go to temple ??
If God is everywhere
To learn
How . . .  God is everywhere
they go to temple
