THE FERVENT PRAYER

Oh! Keep me in the glow of heaven, won't you?

No, don't turn away, help,

I need your approval,

If you adore me, I'll live forever.

Hold me in your perfect vision 

so I may never get a bad haircut.

Fill your eyes with love for me

so I may never fall off of my bicycle 

and get hit by a bus. 

Love me beyond measure,

so my car won't break down

in the middle of the highway

at the darkest hour with no street lamps,

and a circle of wolves won't draw toward me 

like a tightening noose. 

PLEASE! Keep me out of the grave,

it's all up to you to adore me,

Eternalize me,

Ascend me,

I CANNOT CRAWL with bugs under the ground.

I just don't have the technology!

Keep it simple. Keep me alive. 

Keep loving me. Keep loving me. 

HARD!

The darkness approaches. 

I have to close my eyes. 

But you keep yours open. 

You got this! Thanks,

and rest in peace,

HARD.
