Yorktown Disciple
Quatrain of Shorter Lifespan


Shorter Lifespan - be careful






Jealousy is a disease of the
soul and can easily
shorten your
lifespan,


The sooner you rid yourself
of contempt, the sooner
you'll be a wise
man.


Jealousy is a yearning to keep
what you have as if
it a part of your
verve,


All forms of belonging must be
allowed to move freely,
or face the wrath
you deserve.
