i want ten million dollars,God

you're out of work
so you say a small
prayer of petition
to  your higher power, no
not your town mayor,
or state senator,
but higher than that. you ask
for more, not a winning
lottery ticket, that
would be greedy.
although the good you
could do with millions
would benefit so many
others, you could mend
the fences with your
disgruntled family.
giving them small
sums of money, not enough
to make them like you
more, but just a taste.
sticking with your passive
aggressive behavior
towards them. so,
yes, maybe you should
shoot higher. instead of
praying for more work,
why not pray for ten million
dollars tax free.
why not. it would save
God from the whining
you have to do every time work
gets slow. it would leave Him
to do more important things
with the weather and what not.
football season is starting,
so he'll have His hands full
with all those prayerful
coaches and players needing
a touchdown or a fieldgoal.
you're just trying to help out.
