A Stranger's Prayer
...Silly wisps of her raven hair flutter
In the winds of the long-short corridor of summer;
They snivel with the whims of cosseted sots,
Sinking in the futile harmony of winking beasts.

when 'AI' my dummy doll spoke
the words of a billion

In the brown eyes of Jesus
Faded to heaven

The black scary bird
With the blues it sings
The fear made us still
Our hearts beating loud

rather, it’s a God privilege that’s reserved.

free to stalk and murder us—
Prey to be hung, shot, kneed, ...

Stupidity

You've talked me into doing wrong
