Prayer For Bounty
When I'm old and tired
I reckon I'll say and do stuff
in my typically bold way will
inspire people wanna take me down.
I deserve it.
(Deserve is one helluva word, ain't it?)
When I'm old and tired
hope folks will overlook
glaring eccentricities and contradictions
In favor of effort to love.
