    • ok, she came home for a "visit", but does that mean she is staying? Not likely....

    Masichists' Prayer

     Now I lay me down to sleep,
    I pray the lord my soul to keep.
    Should I not wake before dawns' break
    I pray the lord let me never wake.
    I sleep and dream of days gone past,
    I pray this sleep will forever last.
    If I wake, somehow, by the grace of God,
    death will be in my prayers with every nod.
    Now I lay me down to sleep,
    my soul, the lord he'll never keep.

    Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
