SMALL MERCIES

if I could I'd leave this sojourn


but we are not to take ourselves out

before our appointed times


I don't give a damn whether you believe me

it's the fact that we serve our lives like sentences


from an unmerciful judge

no way around it and no way out of it


but to endure our time and be grateful for small mercies
