Every time
the whim
of others
places me
into another
psychic pickle..
The will of God
transfigureth
that thorny prickle..
into nothing more
than but a gentle tickle.

So long
as I have faith
and wait
however long
it takes..
sooner or later,
God Almighty’s
heavenly
Uno reverse card
flips the tables
right back in my favor.
God always keepeth
an eye out..
for His most valuable
player.

And why is that?
Because I love Him
unconditionally..
and despite
my outward
wickedness..
I’m pure of heart.
Because I praise him
reverently..
through my humble art.
