Bill Grace - Phoo on You Robert Browning!

Phoo on you Robert Browning
Not for your poetry but your theology:

'God's in his heaven
All's right with the world.'

No - God is with us
We turn from the mangled corpse on the cross
Our strivings, our struggles, our pride
Keep us from timeless glazed eyes

No - Ronald Reagan would have loved you
My Mother quoted you
God is with us
'Gott mit uns'
On the belt buckles of an army with broken crosses
That would have conquered the world.

Bill Grace
