I Will

Bitter herbs and tears 
Mulch, water the spiritual 
Roots of human neuroses 
Surely God sees through 
The 7 habits of highly 
Defective people 
There must be a heart in there 
One that beats, feels 

            “I knew Job 
            Job was a friend of mine 
            You’re no Job” 

Take your pill Eldon 
I will. I will. I will. 

Weltschmerz or the end of the world?
Chased dreams, desires 
Runaway slaves 
Not to be recaptured 
Fled like Israel 
While I Pharaoh’s rider 
Cast into the sea 

            “It’s not serotonin, slacker 
            Shut up and re-read Packer.” 

Take your pill Eldon 
I will. I will.

Visions 
Seeing life through a 
Lens of despair 
So many questions 
One solitary 
And I mean solitary 
Answer 
Cease. Stop. End. 

            “Warning! Hamlet in the House.” 

Take your pill Eldon 
I will.
