State of Grace

It's as if the simplest of alphabets
 took on a lifeline of it's very own
forming a mismatched miniscule pipette
 of innocence, insight, wisdom unknown
 forcing us to our knees, humble, bent, prone,
and there a soul prays each and every day
 speaking to God above, these words to say
I need to find a state of grace dear God, 
 to draw my life within your light display
 to escape every temptation filled fog.
