Not take it back

Just like all the rubbish, piles up high
the troubles come and whatever is the crux
 soup stains, when life tastes like gluck
and unbend our dented pride

Some take away the weeds that choke
offer a cigarette, though you dont smoke
a dry sholder for you to soak
fix it up when it's all broke

Clear up all the plastic litter
write a letter and press a flower
the uncut diamonds hidden glitter
a smile that breeds and never dower

Increments to sow, help the weakened grasp
friendship come without preconditions
take the load yet leave some slack
be the scorce of self volition

Laughter and a little craic
the medicine, and not alas alack
the open hand and not portract
to always give and not take back
