The Departing of the Heart

The Departing of The Heart 

Salutations for the sound of mind and poverty of heart 
Reparations that don’t come through in time to rectify the start 
Commiserations for the ones who find it hardest to eventually part 
Palpitations of another heart that cannot perceive the concept that it must depart 

Military consequences that send the young men out to war 
Conciliatory influences of the leaders who target hiring of the poor
Crematory inferences necessary as they knock on heavens door 
An Adversary without recompense that helps me get up off the floor 

Kindness for the people that are on daily parade 
Blindness from the steeple as we play Holy charades 
They Find less sympathy for the feeble as they huddle close and afraid 
Passing through the eye of a needle as the ferryman gets paid 

Interjections from the galley as the defendant begins to cry
Objections in a midnight alley as the amendment causes him to deny 
Rejections of the black sheep in a family as without her flock she’ll surely die 
Comprehensions of the urgency that communicate in sighs
