What It Isn't.(Poem)
WHAT IT ISN'T
Old evidences of decay
Still linger in the mind
And little that you do or say
Seems apposite or kind.
You preach more often than you pray,
You lose more than you find.
It isn't what you take away.
It's what you leave behind.
You win so rarely when you play;
The players rob you blind.
You owe what you can never pay;
The cheques remain unsigned.
Your night encroaches on your day;
The exits all are mined.
It isn't what you take away.
It's what you leave behind.
