Like a Prayer
Like a prayer
we are unobserved
when closest to parting our lips
uttering our beliefs
and like beggars put aside our pride
asking for understanding and relief
surely we do not dwell in the topics
we discuss but live in a world
frightened most of the time
and whether we thought or think now
acted or reacted in other times
leading or misleading ourselves
by habit and biology
we are still after all
psychologically impaired
psychically dazed
pathologically entwined
