Waiting For God, Oh
By Frank Cavano

Lost in the chair, the chair of tiger-like
stripes, waiting for what, an inspiration?
You are gone from me now banished by
my impudence, my mind whistling, chest
puffing effrontery. Waiting for–words?
You owe me nothing, nothing more. Still
I wait, a toothless tiger dreaming You are
prey but knowing, in Your time, You will

feed me love thoughts.
