USER'S MANUEL

no I'm not particularly happy

but nor am I sunk in gloom beyond saving


I accept the whole catalog of grief that is

a person's interior users manual


and I can't kick because I didn't write it

you know "not my will be Thine"


if the Almighty wants it this way

who am I to go on trying to please?


I tweak this and I slam that

and the damn contraption sputters back to service
