to burn away the lead with fire,
but the refining goes on in vain;
the wicked are not purged out."
jeremiah 6:29

how long. how long more til its over. is it my fault. is there anything i can do, i should do. i think there is, there are, many things that i should be doing. but each time i try, i fail again. i wish i wouldn't. i wish it would stop. i wish i would stop. i wish i knew when this ends. i wish i knew where i end.




bang the bronze and hear it hollo out
all hollow within and hollering now
to bend the air to its wind and will
bring it to the till;
again, repeal; til
something within stills.




"we wait in hope for the Lord,
he is our help and our shield.
in him our hearts rejoice,
for we trust in his holy name."
psalm 33:20-21
