SNARES

it is foolish to depend on others

but when you have no other choice

it is particularly galling


this is our Oneness

this is our tie that binds

to make promises and give pledges


that hide our mendacity under the lie of

oh things just didn't come together

maybe it's true


and maybe our pledges are empty promises

covering our own ineptitude and insincerity

but when I make a promise I keep it


and when it doesn't pan out then ask

God about karma and our useless endeavors to amend...
