I stand before you
done, finished, nada
a ghost
with only pleas
for mercy and the key to this
pearly gated community

I openly admit to orneriness
and being an ingrate of magnificent proportion
and as was my way
perpetrated pitifully paltry acts of spite
in cowardly fashion
I have been bold in nothing
even as I spat vile dissertations,
disaffections, and perturbations
at your incessent interference
in my existance
where I was to be my own god,
I did so in silence

this appeal I make,
I make from the same unequivical, inevitable
ignorance and hubris I had crafted
with the dullened tools you had provided

who should rightly bear the burden of blame

so, if you would kindly reconsider
I will accept all correction and provisos
as now my eyes can plainly see
the splendor of all I have ever truely coveted

the riches of heaven and godliness
