A Prayer For My Enemies (Revised) Poem by RIC BASTASA

i pray

May the Lord
give you more grief
May he make you lose
the one you love
May you lose your home
May your country be
at war
May your family be
erased from the face
of the Earth

May you feel a hundred losses

For you have become another
arrogant tyrant
a mass murderer
a land grabber
For you have forgotten our
failures
For you have disregarded our
pleas

May you die in vain.

May you come back to us
As we mourn
As we grieve
