the bird tweets his song
the sun glows
the wind blows
the clouds form
and the days are long
nature will do what it does
whether or not we are here
the burden is ours
for what we get out of life
and although we can’t blame God for everything
who likely gets most the blame for our own misery anyway
he doesn’t mind, he’s got broad shoulders
yet it would be nice to know
he’s got our backs
especially when we feel
he has done nothing
but
watched
us
suffer
as we
finally
realize
and
accept
our days
on earth
are
numbered.
