Difficult is not impossible - Relient K, &quot;Hope for Every Fallen Man&quot;<br /> <br /> <br /> If all I had was love, would I still be lovely?<br /> If all I gave was love, would you give up on me?<br /> -House of Heroes, &quot;Love is for the Middle Class&quot;

The world is this nation, desolate and poor-
Blind-
stumbling along
muttering ridiculous incantation,
pleading for the riches of another
desperate man,
wandering and sick-
the world runs with bare feet
on bare ground,
around and around and around
sketching circles into the hide
of the earth which garns it.
