soft in the work-a-day world
keeping body and soul together and functional
until God has mercy enough to call body and soul apart
at any moment
on any day or hour or minute
that call will come with no recourse
and I will be on my way
and the poor loved ones left behind
awaiting their call
will be obliged to clean up after me
as part of what they must do
until body and soul are sundered
and they race is through
