If prayer is not the answer
what does one do
to ritualize luck
to weight the dice of life
collect upturned pennies
count bluebird glimpses
petition the four winds
wish upon a galaxy…
if prayer is not the answer
what does one do
to focus a beam of hope
into the dark unknown
visualize success
throw back buckets of salt
chant exotic verses
meditate upon a star…
wrestler with this dilemma
upon the horns of a paradox
concocting incantations
to a capricious universe.
