WHY THE PANIC

why the panic for god's sake
you must leave all you cannot take
a single thing a single thought
at the end all comes to naught

all the things we leave behind
include our deeds include our mind
the ego just disintegrates
there's nothing left at heaven's gates
 
your only job is here and now
without pretension or a bow
 
so clean the heart - eliminate
all the worry violence hate
 
and leave you ready
leave you true
 
to meet your maker
when you're through
