As mere mortal man, where do I go for strength?
Reels of death give me the L in a reek, like
Lazarus died of covid19 in a past story of a tryke
Tumbling into Jerusalem in tears with 2 sisters.
"Pull Heaven to your breast", I hear that often,
And belief is Atlas lifting Earth, Jupiter plus
That weird new 9th planet, because Pluto was
Not enough pain to bear: something newer, heavier
Is what I need for strength, till I stop to think.
Whom did God call to for help when fear gripped
The roommate of flesh? How was the switch flipped?
"Not Mine but Your will be done" Nothing heavier.
