Adoration to Mary:
Mother of Prudence
Our Mother in Heaven, we adore you
Our Mother Mary – Mother of Prudence – a Christian Virtue
Receive this adoration from your children
An adoration next to that of our Father in heaven
Oh Mama Mary, source of our Christian Prudence
Your sinlessness we adore with magnificence
Your prudent children will adore you forever
Glory be to you also, our Heavenly Mother.
Amen.

Sinlessness
Sinlessness is impossible
But not for 2 people
Who became God's noble example
They are Jesus Christ & Mary
Who were sent to humanity
To teach them how to become holy
Her Immaculate Heart purifies
His Sacred Heart sanctifies
They are God's ultimate sacrifice!

Ode to Mary, Mother of Virtues
Oh Mary, Mother of Faith
You taught us to obey God
Your humble submission we congratulate
Oh Mary, Mother of Hope
You offered us God's Messiah
Your fruit of salvation we interlope
Oh Mary, Mother of Charity
You granted us God's abundant grace
Your genuine generosity we credit sincerely
Oh Mary, Mother of Prudence
You confirmed us that you are guided by God
Your sinlessness we adore with magnificence
Oh Mary, Mother of Justice
You imparted us God's impartial mercy
Your intercession we always please
Oh Mary, Mother of Fortitude
You showed us patience amidst God's trials
Your endurance we praise with servitude
Oh Mary, Mother of Temperance
You astounded us with your chastity before God
Your immaculate heart we want to glance.

*for Mama Mary's Birth
So is she seen with innocence unmarred
to shun the eyes of those taken with her
to flaunt her beauty without fair regard
her perfume to him but a sweet liqueur
lust hoisting him upon his own petard
Whilst in her heart she knows her visage lies
unable to return the ling’ring gaze
for fear that to him she is but a prize
his quest to set her innocence ablaze
knowing her sinlessness is but a guise
For she so knows the vanity of men
that they will overlook a lover’s scars
make promises and return not again
while bragging of their conquest in dim bars
regale them of her beauty and her sin

DEMI - PARADISE
I love stepping out in the morning, even going to work.
The air is clean and the town is quiet with no traffic.
If the snow’s been falling I don’t see the trash in the murk.
Stillness like dawn in Eden is perfect, almost photographic.
Purity and innocence in the city streets for a moment.
Childlike delight in footprint and fog-breath and star.
A cover of sinlessness for the damned city, city of descent .
Now for a short while it is possible to secretly smile from afar.
