wait for me. the surety  that everyday with
the rising of the sun, he will forget the old
things and will start the new day with new
freshness and new sweet...

they tell me to pray
to get on my knees at my bedside
and weave words like spells
to invoke a God I am not sure I wish to know
a God that hides in overpriced church pews and stuffy robes,
entrenched in pointless formalities
an untouchable God without a face
or rather, with a face that too closely resembles the hubris of the men who wished Him into being
