THE MUCK

THE MUCK



Stuck.
Yuk!
Bad luck?!

Or, a swan digging in the mud like a duck?
An eagle, now scratching with a "cluck, cluck"?!
What lures you into the " muck"?
Some, it is just their next f***.
Others, it is betting on Lady Luck.
It might be a shiny new boat or new truck.
A needle, a snort, or some other dope you snuck.
Whatever it is, now you are stuck!
That sinking hopelessness really does suck?!
Those demons are laughing and squealing and running amok!

O, Jesus, come down, from this misery me pluck!
Raise me up to the place from where I was struck.
Restore in my heart the joy lost in the muck.
