Off to dinner tonight, This is starting off like a journal entry I often wonder if I'm meant for someone else Here In this world Or is it bigger than that? Dinner tonight Not romantic Far from it Discernment Priesthood And please don't mention *** scandal Solo until the day I die That's what I'm looking at But my scope is so... Narrow So... Earthly Instead of a father of offspring A father of peoples A father of the church A person who can set people towards a righteous path But let's be honest, I'm far from righteous. I talk a good talk But my walk is a sad limp I pray before I eat, But "forget" in the hustle and bustle of work and life If Christ is supposed to be my center I'm way off target Another god seems to follow me Another trip to Target I'm consistently surrounded by choice In the day to day But instead of choosing right I go with **** what the haters say" I could have bleeped that out, you know Nullified it, But I'd rather be raw And let you see that side of it This is serious business, and no less a journal entry I tried to change it into poetry but I'm way off target
