you mystical sex maniac

Oh this just made me chuckle and I had to share it. It's from a little book of prose poems and photomontage called Carnival Aptitude by Greg Boyd. It is...a prayer, of sorts. (those with delicate religious sensibilities consider yourself warned)

Prayer

Oh God, you mystical sex maniac, give me the patience to fathom the depth of your mosquito fetish, the courage to contemplate you in all your sharp-toothed glory as I try to puzzle out your vampire death cult. In the meantime, I ask you to consider providing me with many decent, long-lasting, and life-affirming erections and the pleasant endings to go with them. Amen.
