Ode or Something

"I can't take it anymore."

They cry out from the whining caves of self. When the pain
of self loathing, or the pain of self is just too much to bear.

"I can't take it anymore."

They cry out from the pain of joints filled with the waters of
misery, hips and knees and shoulders, moving, squeaking

"I can't take it anymore."

The boundless nothingness that seems to surround us to
swallow our prayers into a dark abyss of no-thing -- God

"I can't take it anymore."

It is a prayer we utter to keep from falling in to the abyss
of faithlessness where the no-thing that is God, becomes a
nothing that was our faith in God.

"I can't take it anymore."

Introverted, extroverted, perverted, adverted, alerted
Twitter-pated, addlepated, G-Rated and R-Rated

"I can't take it anymore."

A nun cries out in church one day, and her sisters rush to her side
she cries, they comfort, and understand that to cry

"I can't take it anymore." is a prayer.

It is my prayer.
