Weight


Just now the feeling has begun Of weight I cannot bear An overlap that won't be done For four more months this year. I wonder what my God will do With those who "yes" till fault Who reach unwise, though year be new For who to this is call'd? So thoughtful I begin the day Own burden nearing fear. The only answer now is pray (And get up off my rear.)
