Yes! Hal I wondered about a last line
prayers to their Maker every moment of every day.
About sending muslims to their Makers???
And perhaps saving oilfields??

Sonnet: What American Voters Want
They want their candidates to talk to God, of God,
and for God. They want them in church every Sunday
morning, shaking hands with insurance agents and
car salesmen, taking the pulse of the public in public.
They want God talk, glimpses of core values, hints
of Apocalypse to come. They want to judge character.
And they want characters to judge. They can spot
fakers, so faking it won't do, and would-be fakers
should at least know their Bible and carry it with
them whenever they get on or off a plane, whenever
they show up for town meetings, or picnics on the 4th
of July. They want nothing to do with atheists.
Lips that kiss their babies must be lips that launch
prayers to their Maker every moment of every day.
