The Patron Saint of Worthless Causes

Paint me Saintly, my actions lately
Have shown such cause a'plenty
My Quarters stately, my Morals greatly
Unfazed by thoughts of many
Still in search of the Peace I've wanted-
Looking, tracking; intent to find!
But by my former self I am haunted,
Lurking not more than two feet behind...
