Your Presence Is So Worthless
If your coming into life
won't be of any good to others,
your presence is so worthless;
your sight is bleary
and your senses are blunt;
you may be tumultous as the wind,
be derisive,reckless and noisy...
lawless and imprudent in you hunt,
but what you capture is your own kind!
I like to see the good things prevail
over the ones that cause dispair;
I value life in all its beauty,
to strenghten the confidence in my creed...
All mending has to be done
before death and darkness arrive
with the hunger of a swine;
they'll take, without prejudice,
anybody who seeks solace...
and if mischievousness or mirth
tries to buy your way out of it...
your punishiment will be imminent!
There are many risks that should be avoided,
the ones that impair your judgement;
caution and wisdom promise a longer life
and make your living absolute;
prayers are not to be considered
as futile as an imbecile's laugh...
to imply that your presence is so worthless!
