I have called angels

brainstormed peers

invoked saints and scriptures

worn purified clothes

visited shrines

abstained from food

singing raucous pleas

to the Gods

crawled on all fours

cried and crying

sought omens

in my daily life

pursuing circles

of viciousness

even with

dizzier gait and

myopic eyes

hoping one day

I will have my answer

why me?
