priestly prayer



God
make me not
a lazy sacrificial official
an avaricious dealer
in magic sayings
a conceited worthless orator
a wicked sly priest
or just a good stupid sheep
amongst a large herd

God
make me a human
strong minded
imaginative
level headed
sympathetic
a human
who knows his mind
and is not afraid
to speak it

answers premeditated




nauseating emotions

bubble inside my head

even as volcanic liquid

roll in my stomach



every time i sit with groups

of women and men questing

after questions with answers

premeditated and easy



confirming established prejudices

leaving no space for timid, tentative

rejoins, which may be closer to truth

to set free women, men and children
