Poetic Abstract 3


Stained Glass Blues


One wonders what prayer does,
for someone who does not believe
for one who holds no allegiance to
a cross of wood,
a crown of thorns,
a book of rules.


Should you continue,
knowing your efforts are considered wasted?
or does it make you feel righteous
knowing that it will be for the best, regardless


We follow a golden rule, but
only if it is in our best interest.
We ask for forgiveness on Sunday,
We pay our fine,
We start with a clean slate on Monday.
