I pray every night,
have all my life.
Have no proof
anyone is listening,
but I hope there is.
It just may be a
reinforcing technique,
I’m not really sure.
A prayer
is a harmless thing
hurts no one
in its passing.
I’ve lost faith
in any religions,
just spouting their
propaganda.
Just power trips
as far as I can tell.
The few
telling the many
what to do.
See no reason
to put them between
me and the creator.
Some say
all that we see
comes from
nothing,
a quantum fluctuation
that’s all.
That may be the case
I do not really know,
neither does anyone else.
Karl Marx
said ” religion is the opiate of the people”
, he may be right
but no one can say
for sure.
Some say have faith,
“God spoke to us, showing us the way”.
That may be the case,
but nobody knows
for sure.
Faith
is a funny thing,
we can have faith
in almost anything.
If
there is a creator
its intentions
is beyond ours to know.
So the best we can do
is live our lives,
and focus
on what we can.
Treat others
as we’d like
to be treated
seems like a
good philosophy.
The Golden Rule
is simple enough,
and seems
to make sense to me.
