Runaway Angst


Admitting it isn’t easy, - and making no excuses 
tames this runaway angst - yet even tho there is 
no reason t' thank yourself for just trying t’ make 
the grade, you succeeded; okay, our very empty 
mail box meant walking there wasted that effort, 
although it put you back on a track long thought 
dead & bye-gone; and so, the jaunt said, you’re 
exercising strong again, that’s a hip-hip-hooray 

No deaf ears will be parlayed if you’re into doing 
your bit to keep the fires burning, and you strive 
diligently t’ repay times past merely treading the 
mile t’ say I’m not giving into or away any of this
magnificent legacy; the day when the circulatory 
deficiency’s remedied is now y’ wind o' change
