Where Are

Where are You? You must be at war Again with yourself You Poor elf. How is Your health? Please Wealth Is not important When you’re so sick So insignificant Next to the creek Don’t be a freak Be wise and compliant. Money is not What you think it is Being a nut Is not a way to ease The pain and suffering Keep on dreaming And mesmerizing About another ring. Where are You? Still at war Sitting in the pew?
