| You pray to be
included in the book Of life before your yearly doom is sealed, Making sure no sin is left concealed, Knowing that there'll be no second look. In words that are sincere, with guilt unfurled, Perhaps you pray with some uncertainty, Poised between belief and poetry, Unwilling now to take it literally, Remnant of a strange and ancient world.
