Prayer to St Michael in these crazy times!!

St. Michael the Archangel, 
defend us in battle. 
Be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the Devil. 
May God rebuke him, we humbly pray, 
and do thou, 
O Prince of the heavenly hosts, 
by the power of God, 
thrust into hell Satan, 
and all the evil spirits, 
who prowl about the world 
seeking the ruin of souls. Amen..

Superbia

It's a burning question

one I'd like to name

a searing question

is there one to blame?

Dropping down 

into my mind

a plot device of one

plants seeds of desperation

hands hiding from the sun

It's a searing question

one that fans a flame

a boiling question

is there one to tame?

Passing down

a ruined crown

laid up upon the heights

forms shards of abdication

and limbs flailing in the breeze

It's a glowing question

one where there's no shame

one last scorching question

that lays one down from the game

that claims one grasping for the fame
