I said a prayer for you today
That you would rise from your
Self-pity and excuses
From your odious ways and
Do something. Anything!
I said a prayer for you today
That you would take responsibility
For your failures and your laziness
Your cowardice and your envy
That you would take your strengths
And use them to build your story
And focus on your journey
I said a prayer for you today
That you would stop pointing fingers
At the insignificant colonisers
That wrote your history
And you still allow to write your history
I said a prayer for you today
That you would use your hands
To dig for your gold
Instead of opening them to heaven
Hoping to catch some falling manna
That you would grab your destiny by the horns
And ride it hard with the focus of a matador
And steer it towards your sunset
I said a prayer for you today
That you would think!
About ways to improve your
Present circumstance
To shape your spawns and
Control your demons
That you would take time
To strategize
Before you jump blind into a situation
I said a prayer for you today
That you would harness your pride
And weed your farm of faeces
In order to harvest abundant fortunes
That you would take your head
Out of the sand and people's arses
And face your realities
I said a prayer for you today
That you would invest in your union
Time, affection, desire and care
So you can harvest the same
That you would first seek your missteps
Before blaming others
For foolish decisions and hasty actions
I said a quiet little prayer today.← All writing & reflections
