How the Day was Thus Far Spent

By Paul C. Binotto

I cannot say where it went,
Borrowed more, the less I lent.
Oh, how the day was thus far spent.
And, there's little left to do but wait.

And, stand as tall, and as straight,
Pay the piper, due his rent.
As God, through prophets sent,
Not to straighten righteous fool, but hell bent.
