Ether 9:14

On Ether 9:14
11-27-17

It comes to pass that Emer does reign for pleasure and pain
And sugar running through my every vein
As those of Akish are greedy of gain
A chance to talk things over
And we find a way to work it out
This is human nature and its drama
As preserving love leaves her
Many on men of means
Today I turn it all over to Jesus
By descent
By intrigue
She doesn't need to be out of my league
Sleight of hand O, ask me why
And I say, "I don't know"
Twelve bucks richer
Another lucky number
Nevertheless for the space of forty-four years
I am what I am but still I shed no tears
Piercing and plaintive O, mighty faith..
