Prayer of Forgiveness (Free verse) by Dovina

I forgive You for allowing sickness injustice, earthquakes and cruel people who hurt me as I forgive those who sin against me

Dovina 13-Feb-05/7:30 AM
Oh, what’s that thing from church…about “Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us?” Well, I feel rather sinned against, what with all the dyin’ and killin’ and nobody who could stop it, stoppin’ it. I’m Just tryin’ to forgive that person, that’s all. I don’t expect many folks to see it that way, especially those like you who don’t pay much attention to church. It’s just the way I feel about it. Of course there are those who think that because I feel a certain way about something that I’m being arrogant and abrasive as if I wanted everybody to think as I do. But I don’t because then they’d be as messed-up as I am, and besides, what fun is it to have everybody agree with me, nobody to argue with, nobody to tell me I’m arrogant, illogical and didactic? I got much love ya, too. Not because I agree with ya, or you with me very often though. And I like your 6 better than if it were a 10. It’s just because talkin’ works with some folks, and with others it’s a waste of time.
