WILLS

Your will –

It’s always gonna be greedy!

Perhaps unrealistically greedy!

But don’t be cruel to it!

Don’t torture it!

Don’t try to kill it!

Why would you want to get involved in murder?

Learn how to discipline it…

Perhaps seduce it…

Into occasional submission…

Yet always remain prepared,
For its roaring return…

Even the Richest,
Luckiest,
Most Powerful,
And Beautiful,
Must eventually confront
Our never-satiated wills…

Those freaky little monkeys,
At the helms of our selves,
Often ruining blissful moods,
And perfectly peaceful nights…

But also pushing us forward,
And providing some useful courage,
And inspiration,
Every now and again…
