Hopper

The grass was always greener

Just on the other side

“here” was always “leaner.”

He could never just “abide.”

He could not agree in practice,

or with doctrinal points he heard

And became a religious cactus

A prickly and real strange bird

He differed with every preacher

and would give his points of view.

He  was a very dogmatic creature,

argumentative, through and through.

Last, he joined the congregation

Where he was the “only” one.

He wasn’t there alone five minutes,

before the fighting had again begun.
