trying to get the cap off

your head is ready to explode

when you 

try to understand God

and his mysterious

methods of running

this world.

or is He.

is He involved, or just sitting

back.

on vacation maybe?

sometimes prayers

get answered and other times

not a peep comes out of Him.

if he's all powerful and all that

why the pain,

the suffering,

disease, murder,

the traffic in the Lincoln

Tunnel?

what's up with all that.

i know, i know, free will.

always with the free will.

we have a choice in all things,

or do we.

aren't we predestined,

wasn't all of this preordained?

as i said. it's hard to wrap

one's head around it all.

meanwhile i can't even

get the cap off this

tylenol bottle.

do i turn, squeeze and pull, or

twist and push?
