I Said a Prayer Today
I said a prayer today.
It didn’t end with an “amen”.
I imagine the “algorithmic” angels
Flagged it as “misinformation”
I’ll probably be “suspended”
Or banished by the “cancel culture”
To a state of mindless rambling.
I worry
For once it’s out there
It’s out there
In the “prayer-o-sphere”
Colluding with the others
Misspent prayers
Wondering if they were ever heard.
I guess I’ll just have to wait and see.
Maybe I’ll say another prayer tomorrow
Who knows?
