Even intentions turn to grouse
If kept from keeping neighbour warm :
Yin feel no qualm...

COPLA 91 INVOCATION : This Bad Guy World

Not on whose coat-tails hang the Yang
Other values than lip-service count :
Nor country birth

Wave no flags at Death’s door crying « Bang ! »
True bravery quenches staunch souls’ fount :
Denial’s worth

Harm’s wrong however right the cause
Refusing timely help’s likewise an arm :
Do souls alarm

Even intentions turn to grouse
If kept from keeping neighbour warm :
Yin feel no qualm
