In seeking specks in neighbors' eyes
I walked the plank in mine
off the ark into the flood--
surprised I could not walk on water.
O me of little faith!
O plank between my eyes!
O get behind me, Satan!
into that dogfish Monstro's maw
there to be baptized in the
whale-tomb belly
of the fish-provided.
Lord, that your grace
may vomit me
and make me clean.
