Copla 69 Invocation This Bad Guy World

COPLA 69 INVOCATON: This Bad Guy World

Yet the way You humiliate us
Is to make us grovelling slaves
To bloating bodies

Thank You for clothes combs and tooth brush
And the soap that barely cleans souls
And such goodies

Do we complain at every turn
Or merely stumble and give thanks
Knowing not why

Or is the lesson we must learn
Before the lights go out: Who descends
To watch us cry
