this evenings prayer

i gotta be up before noon
and the eternal sunshine is
blazing down my moonlit spine

must sleep before the new day catches up to me
for i must be up by the noon hour

and hey!

i look up astrology
at five forty seven in the morning
i have not yet found a time for sleep
for this heart is spinning

out of control

i ate popcorn for dinner
and i will fall to sleep
satisfied with this consumption

because i have expelled
more love than i knew i could

and if any heart could rest sound
it would be
because of this

giving even more
than you were graced with

hallelujah.

save your soul.
hallelujah.

god will grace us all.
