The Wooden Box

Is he really headed for the coffin?

The Wooden Box

Hate the world?
Want the box?
Really?

Frustration?
Drugs? Likely.
Desperation? Hardly.

Might gain the edge.
Might gain sympathy.
Might gain pity.

Not understanding, though.
Not respect, either.
Not love, ever.

Hurt the world? No.
Hurt your friends? Some.
Hurt a lover? Maybe.

Help your hurt? Doubt it.
Help your pain? Try it.
Help your life? Ignore it.

Try a massage.
Try some bourbon.
Try sex.

Then try love.
Might not work.
But worth a try.

Still want to go?
Still want the box?
I'll get it.
