Comfortable with the unspeakable
Obnoxious unconfrontational
Augmented stolen-perch ******,

Agel, with no ‘n’ for nurture, eyes for plundered treasure
Your age isn’t elegant
Eat the ****** fruit whole with the pips, as old children are murdered, opal fires fixed in feathers...
Guard me during slumber
'neath an agel's wings.
Let not dreams bring troubled things.
Bless my rest, O King of Kings
that when I wake I shall renew
my dedication unto you.
I shall be kinder come the morrow.
I shall alleviate other's sorrow.
Guard me through my sleeping hours
  with Thy watchful eye.
Touch my soul with benediction
  as on the bed I lie.
Come morning I shall plan
  to be a better, gentle man.
  
Amen. Alleluia. Amen.
For  poets with faith,  and there are many of you out there in cyberspace.
