The Lord Preys

I found Christ at the altar,
And he asked why I was there.
I replied,
“I had foresight of imminent despair.”

“Seek console in yesteryear,
believe the sights of the blind.
For the man who seeks Adam’s apple,
there is no peace of mind.”

In clarity,
I humbly renounced the doctrinaire.
Seeking void prosperity
Is the essence of a prayer.
