8.11.11

Of Merdia 37

Ms. Denum, in an extraordinary burst of worship, sings a song to Merdia.  The Committee for Such Things recommends to the appropriately minded to pray this prayer at the right times, in the right ways.


37.        Dear Merdia,
I have not loved Thee as I ought.
I have hoarded my steaming jewels, which are not truly mine, but Thine.
I have not been aesthetic in release, but sentimental, gushing, against all principles of adoration.
I have not sung while dumping, but been distracted; I have thought of mundane things and not concentrated on Your Glory.
I have been quick to perform Your Worship, in and out of Your Fine Temple, with only thoughts of lesser things, and those before me, after.
I have not seen my offering as the Highest Form of human love, but the lowest, shaming me before Your Throne.  Even so, you have not denied me, Graceful Lady of the Void.
I have disdained the offerings of others, whether by sight, sound, smell or texture, sitting in judgment I am not qualified to have.  Forgive me, dear Merdia.  Thine is the beginning and the end, the splash and gurgle, hot hierarchies of heat.
May I rise to your perfection, Sweet Steaming Sibyl.  May I give you my all, in earthy lumps of lower love.
Amen.
