If you have them, your day will overflow
with options; you can reexamine
everything that smells of dogma
or the forbidden, tip your hat
to the great poem that is the body,
maybe even uphold the beautiful
by renouncing the pretty.

which are holy days for others, but for you
are days off, a chance to exercise
your pleasures, perhaps speculate why prayer
never seems to reach its destination.
