Amidst heartless ho hum

Dunk in world, taint-less still I’ll be,
Man of the world, world-less still be.

Come, stitch a patch of love ‘pon me
So that my life loveless not be.

Death, yours be the only bed, where
I sleep and keep grace still with me. 

Journey of life that scarce goes straight,
As man way-lost would digress me.

Amidst all this heartless ho hum,
My work still reader-less might be.
