lose the things learned to accept
like faith in promises
think about the truth i hold
compared to the bitter fruits of getting old
this is a test to see if my worst
can still beat my best
a test, a measurement of my failure
at success
built up bad times in the cracks
of my securities
but still, turn my back
look the other way
sustain myself, all work no play
and views become naturally corrupt
when friends and enemies get mixed up
my lessons learned after the fact
how true.
