Beyond Belief
---- Big Frank Dickinson

Where credulity fears to tred
The road you thought untaken.
Beyond expectation, til now
When you catch yourself saying,

"It's beyond belief", beyond belief is true.
Not above, nor under
But, beyond - the yonderland
Where the unexpected exists unbelievably free.

Unlike heaven (one place for all,we're told)
Each has his singular "Beyond Beliefland",
Where cocksure alone beyond relief,
Beyond sure we stand beyond belief.

Behind the phrase belief tarries,
Like angels at the gates of hell
Envious of the shackles thrown off
But still not beyond enough to rebel.

And ahead past creed and tenet
Are creatures who belie the blest
Like devils past the gates of hell
They're way beyond unrest.
