Don’t blast a call to prayer outside my window.
I pray when I want
and drink when I want and sometimes I want.
Our best times involved copious amounts—
me and my Bobby McGee,
hair flowing free
not swaddled in silence
with a mouth full of stones.
Don’t blast a call to prayer outside my window.

Belinda,
Thanks. When that line popped into my head it felt very right and complete.
C.M.
Thanks! I've missed you too. Nice to be back in the groove.
Anni,
Thanks! Ohh, love the costume.
I wonder how many of them would remember to pray without needing that racket to remind them? I have issues with scheduling in religion because belief should be 24/7/365, not at appointed times.
Interesting 55.
Just great. Really enjoyed this one and the notion we will pray when we want and drink as we will. Free will is a beautiful thing.
i so agree...!
Oh, was that sound a call to prayer? I thought it was Last Call, so I ordered two more.
Cute 55, Yvonne.
Great images - as usual! :)
Interesting twist also love the copious moments, and the Bobbie Mcgee, strange how it brought up memories of a time long ago of really feeling free, now that seems like an illusion to me.
Beautiful 55er,
joanny

Thank you. Yes, I agree. It's a long ago memory of what it was to really be free.
Wow--lots of good posts I missed. Love the poem. They sound like lyrics to some great, wonderful song.
