at least for me Grace does not supersede Karma

and Will is not stronger than Destiny


for whatever reason I cannot know in this skin

the One has forbade me even amendment


and all for which I strive is snatched from me

just as I'm about to achieve it


or given to me and assured of coming

to little or nothing


let the Positive Thinkers bray all they wish

they don't know how blessed they are


and for those of us not so fortunately disposed

we make our atonements as we go forward


not trying to undo sins we're already paying for

but at least a fighting chance next time we walk in flesh...
