Replying to a comment on:

Almost Persuaded (Free verse) by Dovina

While we’re sleeping something’s keeping the world spinning uniformity winning While we’re dueling for knowledge drooling something’s ambling comfortably ruling Something sensible? Responsible? Reprehensible!

"ambling"? I almost said, “someone’s ambling.” But that makes it sound too much like belief in God. The idea is to show a person who is almost persuaded to believe in God. And in a way, Gen. Patton calmly surveying the battlefield is a good image for God – calm, in control, confident. Thanks for the comment.
