Ritual

Rituals are just repetitions,
doing the same thing over and over.
So what are my rituals?
I could try to come across here,
before you my reading public,
as righteous, as pious.
But way too often I've told you
I struggle with meditation,
with the right rituals.
How different would it be
if I were so religious, so regular,
with turning to God, with a tenth step
or eleventh, as when I brush my teeth
right before I go to bed,
immediately on rising.
Can I make it a ritual?
Can the power toothbrush
that intrigues my grandsons
become my tool for creating
a more meaningful ritual?
