Prayer for an Unsuccessful Creative

Dear God,

Please, please, please.

It would put my mind at ease

If, in another life

for I know that I will die.

Maybe the next one

(Please be the next one).

I wish to be born again as a nepo baby.

Maybe a model, a singer or an actor.

Sorry, Mum,

sorry, Dad,

and sorry, God.

Amen
