Men whose sole ambition
is the wish to save their lives,
will lose and get perdition
as a consolation prize,
but the man who makes his mission
Christ before he dies
gains his life by this decision
and has done what’s wise.

the gunge beneath the gutter.

and heed all the glowing warnings
that we’re feeding global warming
and the woe high temps are forming.

you can trust with greater,
but he whose palms are used to grease
cannot be trusted later.

If the toll of all life’s tasks
had at the onset been unmasked,
would we pass the trifling paths
for actions that might everlast?

o’er the risk of man’s calamity
without the gift of Christianity.

If it appears I’ve lost my grip,
alas, my dear, I’ve fallen sick!
This time I fear It’s not the pip!
Whichever mix of small physics
my doctor picks for me to lick,
I vow to swallow awfully quick
now that I need a solid fix,
and hope that it kicks in by six,
for I believed all of their tricks,
and now I’ve gotten politics!

just like Henry David Thoreau did,
to your pen you’ll stay devoted
till poetic men have doted.

o’er other concerns
in the end, will not escape the
fate that it has earned.
