Robert W Service - Agnostic Apology
Work rating: Medium

I am a stout materialist;
With abstract terms I can`t agree,
And so I`ve made a little list
Of words that don`t make sense to me.
To fool my reason I refuse,
For honest thinking is my goal;
And that is why I rarely use
        Vague words like Soul.

In terms of matter I am sure
This world of our can be defined;
And so with theories obscure
I will not mystify my mind;
And though I use it more or less,
Describing alcoholic scenes,
I do not know, I must confess,
        What Spirit means.

When I survey this cosmic scene,
The term "Creator" seems absurd;
The Universe has always been,
Creation never has occurred.
But in my Lexicon of Doubt
It strikes me definitely odd,
One word I never dare to flout,
One syllable the mountains shout,
Three letters that the stars spell out:
        GOD.
