'A Small Request'

'A Small Request'

They turned out my light

And now with corners

Dimly lit

Do they even "give a shit"?

I have no way of knowing

Nor do I care to find

Another judgement waiting

To hurt or tear and grind...

For I have kept Life's motion

To the best I have to give

And now I only ask

That I might live....
