Transcendental Sonnet #324:
A Good One!

Raised as a hardcore fundamentalist
Now I'm a drunken German Lutheran
Who only goes to church on Christmas Eve
But my dear readers here I must insist
That in spite of everything I believe
And I thank God for sending me "The One"
My beautiful Silke shining in the sky
My breathtaking transcendental butterfly

So Gott sei Dank und Froehliche Weihnachten
I'm going to church on Christmas Eve and then
I'm going to Sweden to see my baby
I've never traveled anywhere and maybe
I will be murdered as an American
By hardcore fundamentalists... a good one!
