Prayers within the glass house

As I sit within the walls of my glass house.

 

I pray earnestly.

 

That the sunlight which emanates through the panes –

will serve to illuminate and cleanse my compunction

to point my finger in judgement at others.

 

I pray earnestly.

 

That this energy will be conserved.

So, that I can employ it

in the fight that

is my own ugliness.

I pray earnestly.

 

That I am compelled to look at myself, first.

Before I opt to direct my gaze elsewhere.
