PRAYER OF THE MISTRUSTFUL

Folder: 
JOURNAL#10

the doubtful must cry, this as so I am certain

is written somewhere in the finest of untainted blood

for all even man kind to one day read

guilt is the preferred brand of pen that glides all

too smoothly upon honesty's most exacting page

there is (though admittedly) some fragments of fear in

this life's current and continuous existing thread

while 'Threat' and her rapier sword 'success' hold the

match that could douse and destroy all that I hold so

dear

so, from the scripted morrow's mayhem of memories

I toppled as I fled

fearing not what I have indeed been but what I very well

may one day become

sweet tyranny, embrace me in each

my even unknowing decision.............

(written Nov.5, 1993)
