SELF RELIANCE INDEED!

all these proponents of 'self reliance'

from mountain man psychos

to Yankee snark Emerson himself


self-servingly forget

a basic truth...


charity...


yes we're responsible for our own souls


but yes...if we're to love God totally

and our neighbor as ourselves


our first duty is to help others...


how conveniently this is ignored

but it won't be


when a final reckoning finally arise...

rely on yourself to get out of that one?
