Ob's stürmt oder schneit, ob die Sonne uns lacht,
Der Tag glühend heiß, oder eiskalt die Nacht,
Verstaubt sind die Gesichter, doch froh ist unser Sinn,
Es braust unser Panzer im Sturmwind dahin.

Though time and time again the loose knots are tied again
There will always be those who champion the idea they are untying.

And who among us can say the ripped rope doesn't alarm them?
That the thunder cracks and the sea sways over and over again.

That the trees refresh in spring and the leaves grow green again.
The deep pits and the lion's stomach call for the bones of poetry.

But time and time again the loose knots are tied again
And we are merely chanting charms to our wooden goddesses.

Asking for Peace from God is like asking for a nutritious meal from McDonald's.

It's like asking your dealer for tips on going clean.

Before the dead protrude their bony arms from their graves, like trees in the harrowing woodlands,
Before the sky bleeds truth in fiery red damnation,
Before the earth itself collapses and it's waters envelop the land,
Before all humanity is once again enslaved to ancient idioms and superstitions,
Even, before our muscles grow lethargic and frail with age,

Let the bloodshed stop, lest it be our untimely end.

The morning wind remedies,
not with more sleep,
with breakfast instead.

Without a peep,
you of no bridges played dead,
an animated freeze.

You stared, "No bread,
but with me, please,
count these sheep."

"Soul of Miss L, glorify me.
Body of Miss L, nourish me
Blood of Miss L, intoxicate me.
Tears of Miss L, wash me.
Oh good Miss L, excuse my plea,
And hide me in your heart,
And defend me from mine enemies.
Help me, Miss L, help me, help me.
In saecula saeculorum. Amen."

It was peace when
Churchill sent the soldiers
to shoot men who wouldn't
dig black coal at Ely.

And when he sent
the Blacks and Tans
to rend a ravaged land,
starved by peace,
it was peace.

And it was peace
when three million children
died of diarrhoea,
year in, year out.

(And that we didn't fear the shits
should've been cause for guilt.)

It was peace when
Portugal cut spending
to reduce the debt,

But twenty thousand more people,
and it was clear in the stats,
died that year.

I don't believe in your God, but I'll write a prayer for the sheer love of spontaneous poetry.

When Heaven shines,
When Satan's blind,
When God's light cures all.

When love is cast,
When hate is past,
When peace has dominated once more.

Peace to the world,
Peace to all men,
Peace to those who are suffering.

God's love will shine,
The world will see and
Darkness will be detracted again.

Amen.

Made up on-the-spot. Sorry if it's shit.

You mean you wrote a poem.
But are calling it a "Prayer"
Because you don't mind being pretentious.
