A Poem by Glen Fitch

       


    One Higher Power,
        understanding, kind,
        all knowing, patient, wise,
        forgiving, near, compassionate,
        attentive to mankind.
        more powerful than TV,
        pizzas, beer
            and sex.
    From you I'll ask
        but won't expect   
            that miracle,
                (the little ones will do).
    Just so I'll pray
        you'll keep disasters checked,
        for justice, vision,
        peace and mercy, too.
   
        Adore me,
        keep me honest,
        make me laugh, feel needed,
        special, healed and whole.
        I need your silent help
            on my behalf
        to live,
        each day abstain,
        rebuild my soul.
    And what I am grateful for
        you'll hear from me on hold,
        while pumping gas,
        and as I pee.

A word is a wager in thought. Every one I pick is a bet that it will mean to you what it means to me. That is at least today, relevant to my race, class, gender and community. The fine print in my poe.. more..
