Stop Churning the Dust

I refuse to pray
the way
they do
in church.
I say Goddammit! Stop this sweating sun
and moonlit mold
poison ivy sting
itching tick-bite
tiny virus burrowing in my nasal cells when I have no Kleenex,
and wind churning up dust
in my eyes!
That is my Sunday to Sunday prayer.

  1. These are good poems
    for the light and dark
    hearted to consider
    indepth and
    on the
    surface
    of the ground
    where they
    sprout.
