And David said,

"O LORD,

I pray to You,

turn the counsel

of Ahithophel

  into foolishness."

         2 Samuel 15. 31

(Turn the tide,

       O LORD.

There may be 

nothing I can do

to change things,

but I can pray.

Praying is always

against the odds.

Praying opens up

every door, window

and crevice 

to the power of God

          in this,

beyond what 

I can comprehend,

or even know how

      to pray for.

Seek God in this,

not just the answer.)
