Oxymoron

 

That I pray before bedtime


is ludicrous and contradictory,


an oxymoron for me.



You see quite some time ago,


I gave up my childhood fostered


religious belief.



But just for the hell of it, I


say these irreverent words


anyway—



With all the upheaval in the


mankind world, I pray, God


bless the goddamned world.



How could you with almighty


powers just turn away? Bound


for hell I am some will say.



As we pathetic humans here on


Earth in so many ways are


burning in a living hell today.
