Teaching You To Pray

for you to be closer to
God you must learn to
pray every morning and
there is really no need of
any formula or chants
or creeds or novenas

talk to him like he is
your friend, he likes
friends he has already
more of those servants
and slaves and soldiers
and counsels. Befriend
God, that is prayer enough,
no mumbo, no jumbo
dance the mambo
try the limbo-limbo-rock
with his angels and flock
