Pissed off Prayer
God, old boy,
You insult my intelligence.
I expected more from you brother.
It was supposed to make sense.
No. Im not going to get on my knees.
That’s the problem.
Too many people on their knees
And not enough standing up
To your bull shit.
That right. Im calling Bull Shit.
The cloak and diaper thing
Done!
We’re shutting that down.
Never mind who We are.
Let’s just call it a coalition .
Of the like minded.
All you need to know is
The jig is up.
No-one’s buying the Koolaid anymore.
You’re not off the team yet.
But you’re gonna ride the pines
For the rest of this game.
There’s a few plays left.
We may need to go into over time.
There may be a Hail Mary pass.
(I thought you’d like the reference)
But we’re in it to win it,
And so far you just not living
Up to your press.

The suffering no-one sees accounts more for who one is than leniencies and easy times
