Oh, better than a full tummy,
and many sweets across the tongue.
Better than a loves embrace
and acceptance by everyone.
Supreme to growing dividends
in my portfolio.
Far supreme to an audience
of all the facts I know.
But yesterday, just yesterday
I found no hope in You.
I grasped for each of these
as though they held my truth.
But here in cool solitude
with hunger and thirst my friends,
I feel righteousness washing over me
from total end to end.
