Self-will run riot

Ashley Ayala 1995 (Louisiana)



Sensational elaboration
Exacerbated incessantly
Time and time again
Dearly wondering
Fearlessly searching
Unnerving thought of
The hereafter
Brought upon by
The ever consuming
'Free-will'
Seemingly given to us
By Him
Why?
Declarations broad
And acute
No detail too minute
To be noticed
In His plans
For us
As a
Whole.
