Take it from me -
demand that I sever the edge
and sap the strength
that lets me face Mercury.
Lighten my head
so light that it floats off
dazed and a mess
in ways that won't pay off.
Tell them yourselves
why the end
came up sped
shorter than prepared.
Let it all go
when the time comes trend
and tell yourselves
that you did the best you can.
