  1. A Prayer

    Share Share Post
    Ah mother are you sleeping. No son, but I am dreaming. What are you dreaming of. You are tearing, wearing, wailing, nailed to a cross and a crown of thorns on your head. That is a very good dream. Mother and whoever says it three times going to bed shall never see the gates of hell put are sure that the gates of heaven shall be open to him.
