huffing hopium

‘faith, hope and charity
but the greatest of these
is charity’
some guy named paul apparently said

hope

hope was the last evil
to escape pandora’s box
before s/he finally jammed the lid back on
given to the inhabitants of earth

hope

pacifies the dark times
adds strength to endurance
is also practiced by owners of
stocks and bonds and retirement plans and the lot

hope

it all works out
that some goblin
tends the light at the end of the tunnel
handing you a shovel
and pointing at your after-life work

hope

bears all things
believes all things
endures into the great here-after
and maybe that’s just fine

hope

have you tried it?
