...A Poem by Ookpikhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ujzMHLac404
.
. In the clouds - . In the thickening haze, . The eddying whirlpool of twisted abrasion, in its tide, . In its maze of myth and mystery - . . I sat and prayed. . . I knew not what I prayed for . Or to whom it was I was imploring . But I prayed to something then, . Thereby and thereafter. . . I lied when I said I never do. . . Prayer is not but a question . For things you can't comprehend . And yet still want to believe in. . . And I think the only irrelevance . Comes from positing prayer . By begging. . . There's no sense in answering beggars . And there's no benefit to beggary. . . For what sense is a gift . If when you come by it . It's delivered to you, for nothing. . . © 2020 Ookpik |
