When must I start to pray? By Andrew Stergiou

When must or should, or will I start to pray?
When I am no longer free, when I am no longer strong, when I am no longer brave, when I am no longer able,
When I can no longer able to be kind, when I am no longer able to be human, when I can no longer struggle,
When I can no longer live, when I can no longer work, when I can no longer die, when I can no longer eat,

When I must pray to Jesus, when I must pray to Mecca, when I must pray to Buddha,
When I am required to pray to Hashem,

When I must pray to the state, when I must pray to the church,
When the state tells me how, where when or how to observe prayer,

When I must pray to lies, when I must to god or the godless, when I must pray to Satan and his minions,

When prayers are incantations of the supernatural, when prayers are to hallow idols,
When prayers are dictated, and prescribed, when prayers are of form without substance,
When I can no longer drink, when I can no longer run, when I no longer can walk,
When I can no longer have the heart and innocence of a child, When I no longer have joy,
When I can no longer see, when I no longer understand, when I no longer can speak, When I can no longer hear,
When I can no longer think, when I can no longer know, when I can no longer be,

When I can no longer hold a sword, when I am no longer able to hold a pen, when I can no longer reason,
When no longer I can make peace, when no longer I can make war, when I can no longer walk,
When I can no longer breathe, when I can no longer hope, when I can no longer be brutal,
When I can no longer be crude, when I can no longer lie, when I can no longer dream, when I can no longer laugh,
When I can no longer cry, when I can no longer love, when I can no longer live, when I can no longer test myself,

When no longer I can suffer, when I can no longer be as the almighty created me, when no longer I can be kind,
When I can no longer be as the almighty intended me, when I no longer can see truth,

When truth no longer sees me, when I no longer hear, when I can no longer speak, when no longer I can write,
When no longer I can create, when no longer I see, when no longer I am, when I no longer survive.
When they do not let me pray, when they tell me where to pray, when they tell me how to pray,
when I can no longer see the shadows, when I can no longer see the light I can no longer praise the light,
When I can no longer curse the darkness, when I can no longer be what is right,
When prayer and prayers impose and are imposed on me

Until then I will be a the almighty created and intended me,
Until then I will be free, Until then I will strong, Until then I will brave, Until then I will be able,
Until then I will be kind, until then I will be human, until then I will struggle, until then I will live, until then I will work,
Until then I will eat, until then I will drink, until then I will run, until then I will walk

Until then I will have the heart and innocence of a child, until then I will have joy, until then I will see,
Until then I will understand, Until then I will speak, Until then I will hear, until then I will think, until then I will know,
Until then I will be, until then I will hold a sword, until then I will hold a pen, until then I will reason

Until then I make peace, until then I will make war, until then I will breathe, until then I will hope,
Until then I will be brutal, until then I will be crude, until then I will lie, until then I will dream, until then I will laugh,
Until then I will cry, until then I will love, until then I will live, until then I will die, until then I will test myself,
Until then I will suffer, until then I will be as the almighty created me,
Until then I will be as the almighty intended me, until then I will see truth,
Until then truth will see me true, until then I will hear, until then I will speak, until then I will write,
Until then I will create, until then I see, until then I am, until then I will survive,
Until then they will not tell me when and where to pray, until then they will not tell me how to pray,
Until then I will see the shadows, until then I will see the light ,as I praise the light,
Untill then I curse the darkness, until then I can do what is right
Until then prayers will not be imposed on me or imposing.
