Your Dying Spouse 666 - The Value Of Civility

One thing I have learned through illness is how much I value civil discourse...and how much I mourn its passing.

The world we knew is at an end

and I fear what lies ahead,

for there's an evil doth portend

when civil grace is dead.

I'm told I must rise up in malice,

destroy my neighbour's traitor-heart;

but in drinking from this poisoned chalice

it's I who'm torn apart.

Is there a way we yet might save

ourselves from this benighted fate,

or are these passing years the grave

of a good recognized far too late?

If I care not to cede the victory

a kinder world must start with me.

Friends are everything. I couldn't have done it.
