My kind of prayer

Fall to one knee, rise and totter
Sway to nothing, stutter further
And slump.

Blame the preacher, make him richer
Bow your heads, get kicked in the butt
once more

Starve and fast away, break your lips
Burst in hunger, hunger longer
In wish

Memorize a verse to recite
Call on the devil and on God
To sit

Break bread as a sign or gesture
Burn everything script and scripture
At stake

Be baptized into the session
Choose a crucifix and wear it
Afraid

Think of the shadows, the abyss
Praying is just a waste of time
Know this
