Last On the List

My Lord,
    
I Thee implore to hear my plea: 

         
Last on Thy list of your humblest of servants let

My soul a place to find 


While


Disregarding my heart’s request, first to be on 

The list of mankind!

Demetrios, my friend, I am weak philosopher and not argue. I remember the message of the Apostle Paul. What is the heart?

Not for me my friend! The heart will sell a piece of the soul to achieve its goals!
