Futility and Humility
Futility and Humility
I have often found that failure and futility
Should never have a home with humility
When what you really need is the ability
To separate surfacing sin from senility.
Maybe so many of us might wear a mask
Then try to avoid each and every task
And outside in sun surely to bask in it
While of much wine empty another casket.
Reached church and in it had a horrible high
Put nothing in and let collection plate pass by
I never committed a sin or ever liked to lie
Now, to be Crazy Christian, every day do try.
