Dear Heavenly Father... by ~Blessed-Silence:iconBlessed-Silence:



Heavenly father, who art in heaven,
Hallowed be thy name.

Bless the girls,
With skirts pulled high.
And the lonely boys,
Between their thighs.

Bless the mother,
Who bleeds her daughter.
And the nameless sons,
Which You slaughter.

Bless the man,
Who hurts another.
And the sister,
Who hates the brother.

Bless the babies,
Who never draw breath.
And the widows,
Who are marred by death.

Bless the children,
Who throw the stones.
And the innocent,
With broken bones.

Bless the maidens,
Who work under covers.
And my handful,
Of conceited lovers.

Pray for the broken,
The downtrodden and meek.
Pray for the filthy,
The confused and the weak.

And lead us not into temptation,
But deliver us from evil.

Amen.

Pushed to our knees so let us pray, and all together we'll bring the real rain.
Watch all that's wasted wash away, so let it come. Our will be done.
Stature retrieved, regain our form. Break free from instinct that's left us all confined.
From nature we must stray to clarity we'll climb. Tradition ingrained, now impermissible.
Now comes a call for all to find a brand new evolution. Here begins a brand new line.
I can't help but fear, look to my species and tremble, to think that God is just...
And in the distance there's a gathering that no longer seems so far away.

Is there any
Greater disgrace for a poet than to
Extend his meaning beyond anything
That he ever could possibly say?
