Naked Prayer

Naked Prayer

A Chapter by Abdul Batin Osman Bey
"

how I see the world through outlaw eyes

"

Dirty people with dirty minds

Make me cringe in ten-thirds time

Until I conclude

We’re just the same

 

Black magic on a funeral pyre

Mock your mistakes yourself

No ones afraid to look at the sky

Madonna carved in dung makes people riot

 

We’re all on the outside looking in

Trying to find hope in the rain

When we feel the sun we leap back

Church bells feel like a heart attack

 

Open fields watch a closed brain

Calm down everyone’s insane

Don’t be alarmed about the cats tongue

The war is over no one has won

 

Wash yourself clean shave off the rust

One second the universe will turn to dust

Have you ever gazed at a New England sigh?

Know this the weather man isn’t the only one who lies

 

Some people accuse me of being moralistic

I tell them they’re just being unrealistic

All I want is to be free

Lesson learned you pay a hefty price for being I or me

 

I must lay down rest my head

Straw and needles make a comfortable bed

If you want to understand a crucifixion

Go back to school become a mathematician

 

The curtain falls

I don’t care
