The Algorithm of a Prayer

In a cathedral full of floating litanies.

You halt

You catch a prayer,

Plant it

In coals of fire,

Like a seed,

Expecting fruits of incense

Time breaks your supplication

Into fractions of approvals.

A colorless light;

A prism dispersing spectrum of aqua;

A photosynthesis of blessings
