Everything is in a swirl
the walls have come crashing down
but my neck hurts too much
to notice

I knelt in the water
to pray

My judging days
have long since
passed away

people are gonna do
what they're gonna do

and I hear
something
very clear...

"tarry the peace
find fortune
at least

in where you are"

I think I just need to tuck this in my wallet and bring it out now and then to read.  Words to live by.
