Night time Prayer

I lifted the curtain,
it's still up defying gravity
defying my hand
making sure I can't write it
computer on my lap
bubbling away whatever
sperm I had left
leaving cancer in the dark
the only light fading
out highway outside
rumbling silent in the nothing
of everything that's happening
beyond my understanding

I could shut the light
I could sleep alright
I could stare into the heaving
mass of bulbs
my eyes yearning for
whatever answers there're left to
find this side of the
Potomac
