Good Deeds and Bad
It just doesn't stop
With me on this table
Though many around me
Completely unable
Don't take my leg
It's not up to me
The chariot wrecked
Now gods hear my plea
I wonder what form
Of night to pursue
When others will find
Good deeds will accrue
And what of my spirit
Will I meet Pluto's worst
Will demons surround me
An unquenchable thirst
I'd give everything
For one more bright day
But for my misgivings
I've one thing to say
Don't savor the dark
But don't misconstrue
It's here virtue lasts
And evil does too.
