X.I commandments, the lost lamentations
thou shalt witness infomercials
thou shalt carry unknown desires
thou shall sign away contentment
thou will discover liability
thou shall not have read small print
thou percentage will approach thy age
thou shalt cry with lacrimation
thou salt will crust thy face
thou shalt stare into nothingness and
to thy credit, thou will know human folly
