For, With And Against Poem by Randy McClave

Frank started to pray
It lasted about 30 seconds or so,
The congregation liked what he did say
As their happy emotions began to grow.
Then the members of the church clasped their hands
And they all began praying too,
As the soul expands
They shouted, "Frank we are also praying for you".

Then a minute or so later
Frank was still there devoutly praying,
As he prayed to our lord and our creator
Now Bible verses he was also saying.
The congregations backs were now going numb and soar
As they continued to listen what Frank was saying,
Many then began to to twiddle their thumb as their stomachs roar
The congregation said, "Frank with you we all are praying."

Now 3 minutes had already past
And the congregation were all still in prayer,
Many mumbled how long will this prayer last
As upon the floor or the pews they all did stare.
Now the arms of the congregation was getting weary
Then Frank shouted out, "Now let's all now sing a hymn! "
As their eyes were getting tired and teary
They congregation now thought, " We are now praying against him".
