Psalm 24... and Counting

Prayer for Our Future

George W. is my president; yet I shall not fear.
He maketh me cry now for greener pastures.
He leadeth us to a desert slaughter.
He slumpeth in the polls.
He forces me down paths of HIS morality for his small supporters’ (with deep pockets) sake.

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of dread,
I will fear no two-term evil,
for truth is with me;
its power and its certainty,
they console me.

God prepare a future for me
in unity with my enemies;
enlighten their heads with wisdom;
(who knows? maybe their capital will overflow).
Surely decency and actual “gentle conservativeness” shall follow all the days of ours lives,
and we shall dwell in a homeland of free thinking
forever.
