All of this Past
Oh sweet dear merciful Goddess, You who nations form for, hear the cry of one of Your supplicants. Help me to be a healer in times of need, a shining light for my sisters and brothers in anguish, a beacon in this hell called earth, something to hold on when all else feels null. Help my problems to become insignificant, help me to rise above my ego into my higher self. Help me to keep myself to myself, to become that which all marvel at for her calm in the uttermost catastrophe. Only a few shall see the truth; only a few to who I will show myself.
Rev 22:20
Oh voluptuous gorgeous Goddess, You who carnal desires are realized for, hear the plea of Your daughter. Awaken the You within me; help me to be a vertible sex goddess in my everyday life. Help me to show my divine sensuality in every move, every step, every breath. Help me to be a light of raw passionate sexuality in a bleak world of suppressed and not allowed, help me to cleanse warriors of war, a modern vestal virgin in service to You. Help me to find that which heals, that which pulses from the root chakra in cleansing spirals upward, help me to be an agent of Your pure, divine sexual healing.
Judith
Oh all-knowing, all-seeing Goddess, You who great epics are written for, hear the thought of one of Your scholars. Help me to be a vertible store of knowledge. Help my mind to quiet, to be still, and receptive to Your knowledge. Help me to be able to retain that which I know I have a knack for, help my studies to become clear to me. Help me through the next years of schooling I have ahead of me, and help me to carry on in Your name. Help me live to the full potential of my intelligence.
Death Dealer's Descent
Oh powerful blood-thirsty warrior Goddess, You who wars are fought for, hear the plea of a knight in Your service. Help me to be a warrior for you, to bring your name to the forefront, and to smite down religious intolerance where it rears its ugly head. Help me to be a help to the lonely, the unwanted, the scapegoats, the feared and the hated. Help me to help those who are beyond help. Those that society rejected because of 'difference', those that cannot find love. Let me be a warrior to change the world to accept those that are different--let me join Your army of truth-seekers as we fight to undo the wrongs that have been done; as we fight to make the world friendly to all regardless all differences that separate us. Let those differences unite us as a human family. Let us rejoice in them, as we rejoice in our similarities. Let us remember that we are brothers and sisters, and that we once spoke a common language: a language of love.
Weak and Powerless
To the Lonely Generation, as this is what I am calling my generation: I know you are angry, I know you are alone, and I know you want change. I know you have given up. We have been told that we'll never do anything of worth, but when we come up with any sort of idea we are not listened to. We retreat into castles built of black paint and blaring music, into our walls of superficiality and shallow behavior so we won't feel the hurt that comes when we're told our thoughts don't matter. We retreat and are hated for it; we come out to fight and are booed off the battlefield. Those who run our world won't listen and think that we are of no worth; when we accept this and stop caring, we are looked down upon for our apathy. There seems to be no end to this cycle.
Awakening
We need to stand and take our world now. The time is now. The adults keep on saying We are the ones we have been waiting for--I think that applies to us more than anyone else. The time of the last generation to rule is reaching its end--soon it will be our turn. What are we going to do? Are we going to drift in apathy until Oh, shit, we're in charge aren't we? What the fuck are we supposed to do? Or are we going to start something now--start building the leadership skills we'll need in order to save humanity?
Falling Through The Sky
Because it is up to us. It is up to the Lonely Generation to use that anger we hold deep inside to get up and save humanity, and the world. Fossil fuels are running out and our society will collapse without a source of power so abundant and effortless. We have to reduce our consumption and put our brilliant young minds together to find a solution. We have to reduce our population size, and if celibacy is the answer, then so be it. We have the strength--we must use it. And we must not fear using it. We must come together in peace and tolerance, putting aside our arguments and grudges in order to come up with a plan to fix our world.
Because it's the only one we've got. And I don't know about your god, but mine doesn't have a rapture option.
