Nightly Prayers

Can't sleep
Murderous electricity
Shocking my veins
Another gash
On mankind's soul
Another meal lost
To the cancerous hyena
And my faith
Has become the conviction
There is nothing
Within our limited scope
Worthy of rapture

Let the ice sheets melt
Help oceans rise
Open molten rifts
In your geologic puzzle
Blast ash
Around your womanly figure
Turn acid rain to
Unbreathable poison
Allow tsunamis to strike
Take trailer parks
In your twister's embrace
Topple the towers
Of every nation
Wipe this slate
And remove your
Undeserved presence
From the fingers
Of this scab picking plague
