Educated hypocrites bother Job with their formulae:

dissertations on God’s qualities and man’s state. 

They speak to him of God and all of God’s ways,

but they fail to see the truth in the handful of dust.

Educated hypocrites, chests full with sad truth

listen to Jesus despair: his Father does not listen

and he has given in.  Their God can be explained

so that they can know when they, and others,

rise and fall, predictable as the sun. 

What is key in the brokennes of Jesus and Job

are not the argumenta of teachers and men named Smith.

Behind the reasons of the shaky superego, beyond

the pulsing drive of the untamed id, we find the vision,

God’s face, and in it we can live or die, with our true self.
