There is no God
unless you're hitchhiking on the A1
from Edinburgh to Birmingham
and then there comes a prayer
for every car passing that declines to stop
"Please, God, make the fifth car stop for me,"
followed by bargaining:
I'll go to church
I'll vote for Thatcher
I'll only suck Catholic cock
And then despair and accusations:
You don't exist unless...
I'll covert to Anglican
I'll kiss the arses of goats
And then Rapturous joy,
but the driver didn't stop because of prayer
but because seven hundred and sixty three is my lucky number
and besides,
I prayed to Satan instead,
