Selfish Concerns

I wrote this shortly after my November trauma...try to explain it in the comments section if you like:

Selfish concerns, money filled urns
Keep life simple, grasped, close
Keep life from ones who need it most
Play it safe; abandon faith
Tuck in my heart to avoid the strafe

Selfish concerns, money filled urns
Life is to share not bury in haste
When all is lost, where is treasure?
Lost forever
Lost forever

Selfish concerns, money filled urns
Rusted tracks littered with dreams that burned
Lined faces, withered brows
Closing veins, permanent scowls
Think of the day that you adjourn
What’s etched on your shackles when you take your turn
Release your spurn and get many returns
Or stand alone….with selfish concerns and money filled urns
