Yorktown Disciple
Quatrain of Cutthroat


Cutthroat - not me



I have spent my laudable
life, noble-minded,
dealing above the
law,


My reward, for my behavior,
has been to witness
providential
awe.


If I had known, my best
ethical effort, would
not get me to
nirvana,


I would have sinned; been a
ruthless cutthroat
and not a
prima donna.
