Here's to the fools,
Who are crazy enough to see clearly,
To think different.
They know God loves each person.
I know He loves me.
He savors my prayers,
And delights in my insights.
I treasure the ancient mission of my contrarian patriarch,
Standing on the other side of the physical and metaphorical river.
I despise the diadems of our day.
You may say I'm a fool.
But all us fools,
My brothers and sisters,
Become wise.

עֵדוּת ה נֶאֱמָנָה, מַחְכִּימַת פֶּתִי (תהילים יט:ח)
The laws of God are truthful, they make fools wise. (Psalms 19:8)
