You do not need to fall to your knees to beg

God: you can say please,
please, at the bus stop,
in line at the hardware store.
Please. After feeding your dog,
watering your plants, paying
your therapist. In the awful
immensity of your bed
late at night. Please.
Please. & if there
is no answer,
you will at least know
that you want one.
