Today, I bled a little more. Tomorrow I'll likely bleed again. Such is the daily living chore that life has become. Such is the roaring brand of a fear of being done. But what's to fear, I wonder? Should I fear what's yet to come? If I died tomorrow, I would go, I think, like all. I would walk in Heaven's winding hall, or burn in pits below. It matters little, if one is asked to be the avatar of all that scriptures blithely claim; A life well lived is a reward well bought, but what eternity can match a gift so pure profane? How can I be called to wrong? How can I be ****** to Hell? If mortal sin is so ephemeral as an errant, earnest thought? Was Faust so very wrong to sell something so heavy and cheaply bought?

Bring My Soul to Market.
